"tmpwatch" is the command you are looking for, but the default "/etc/cron.daily/tmpwatch" script isn't aggressive enough for me (and you, by the sound of it). Something like the following would do as a crude solution:
#! /bin/sh
tmpwatch --atime 28d /tmp
I have a "tmpwatch2" script (which will run after the default script) with my additional commands in it.

Fedora (not just 16) leaves junk in /tmp. It's also using some of that
junk, for example keyring-PRgjGV/.

So what's the best way to reduce the clutter? Is there a service?
