The .s.PGSQL.5583 is normal. Cobalt uses postgreSQL, so don't let that
worry you. These files are really in /home/tmp, /tmp is a ln
mysql and php also use this directory.
So, I think that is normal.
Maybe it was active monitor, that was connected, although I think that
normally is in the log-files.
