NAME
dbus-cleanup-sockets - clean up leftover sockets in a directory
SYNOPSIS
dbus-cleanup-sockets [DIRECTORY]
DESCRIPTION
The dbus-cleanup-sockets command cleans up unused D-Bus
connection sockets. See http://www.freedesktop.org/software/dbus/ for
more information about the big picture.
If given no arguments, dbus-cleanup-sockets cleans up sockets
in the standard default socket directory for the
per-user-login-session message bus; this is usually /tmp.
Optionally, you can pass a different directory on the command line.
On Linux, this program is essentially useless, because D-Bus defaults
to using "abstract sockets" that exist only in memory and don't have a
corresponding file in /tmp.
On most other flavors of UNIX, it's possible for the socket files to
leak when programs using D-Bus exit abnormally or without closing
their D-Bus connections. Thus, it might be interesting to run
dbus-cleanup-sockets in a cron job to mop up any leaked sockets.
Or you can just ignore the leaked sockets, they aren't really hurting
anything, other than cluttering the output of "ls /tmp"
