[SOLVED] Temp files are automatically deleted

[nbd]

I noticed that files in the /tmp folder are regularly disappearing after 10 days since their creation. I presume that they are automatically deleted by the system. Some research in the Internet showed that this can happen if the TMPTIME variable is set in /etc/default/rcS to some value other than 0. By on my system there is no /etc/default/rcS. How automatical deletion of temporary files can be stopped?

/tmp is tmpfs so is in ram. Everytime you reboot, it gets deleted

moonman,

the matter is that they are deleted without reboot. I thought initially that that was a random glitch, but when temp files kept disappearing, it turned out that they are got deleted exactly on the 10-th day after their creation. On some older distros with SysV Init there was a cron daemon tmpwatch which performed automatic deletion of temp files based on the TMPTIME value. Is there on ArchArm some service like that daemon?

Seems like the solution. Thanks!
