Just a remark. DO NOT DO THIS! Other program may well have stuff in /tmp active by the time your script runs. It MUST NOT blow things away in a careless and untargeted way like this. /tmp /cleaning stuff must happen as the very first thing in a system (if it happens at all). NOT as part of some random start/stop script that may run at any time (including long after the system starts, if you shut the service down and start it up again, a not uncommon maintenance process).
