There has been quite a lot of discussions about that.
They are default ORBit files, an open source CORBA.

This is a new install of Redhat 7.2.
Installed-subscribed to RHN and let it update overnight.
Today, working on the Oracle install and see this orbit-root directory in tmp.
Some of the files cannot be deleted. Any idea what it is?
TIA

Time to have someone answer the question: A couple hours.
Knowledge gained when the way to answer
Okay, to find out what files are using these, go into your directory,
and use the fuser command.
So, for me...
cd /tmp/orbit-ockman
fuser *
give me quite a few...here are the first two:
orb-13076214721085093349: 1533
orb-13240275601413802650: 1484
then using ps ax I see that process 1533 is
Indeed , but i am as curious as before (perhaps because of lack of
knowledge ) my question stands : what is the cause and is this a virus ?

yes, indeed, using:
rpm -q ORBit --provides | awk '{print $1}' | xargs rpm -q --whatrequires
I got all kinds of stuff (76 different packages)

no package requires ORBit-0.5.7-3
Anyone have any other ideas? Should I just uninstall the package?

Gordon, while you're right that it's PROBABLY
ORBit (an Open Source CORBA implementation),
it seems to me whenever someone asks that question
the answer can NEVER be "No". It's always got
to be "YES!", "Possibly" or "Probably not", si

Hi All.
I have these strange sub-dirs in
/tmp/orb- , and in these sub-dirs , hundreds of files
names like this : "srwxr-xr-x orb-29348673785".
In the /tmp directory itself, many hundreds
of files with names similar to this : "file-fdhfgv878r"
Never seen them before, propagate faster than
r
Stupid me. To my surprize, /opt/gnome-2.0/lib was not /etc/ld.so.conf.
My mistake ...

I have placed the following 3 lines in orbit.rc
ORBIIOPUSock=1
ORBIIOPIPv4=0
ORBIIOPIPv6=0
At startup I also type startx -- -nolisten tcp
Yet when I do netstat -a I still have several tcp ports listening. Can
someone look carefully at what I wrote above and see if there are any little err
This goes with my previous message about tcp ports listening. Someone mentioned
something you could do to orbit to change the way it use tcp ports or unix
ports or something along that linejust to refresh I had to reinstall and lost
everything.
