I'm not real sure on what you are doing but, this is what mine is: |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
root@fireball / # ls -al /dev/shm |
| 18 |
total 4 |
| 19 |
drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 60 Dec 3 18:20 . |
| 20 |
drwxr-xr-x 18 root root 4400 Dec 26 18:56 .. |
| 21 |
-rwxr-xr-x 1 dale users 32 Dec 3 18:20 sem.lastpassffsemaphore |
| 22 |
root@fireball / # |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
It seems that whatever file is there is owned by the person who created |
| 25 |
it. I use LastPass for my password manager so, I assume, that is what |
| 26 |
that is. Odd tho that I am not currently logged into LastPast but can't |
| 27 |
imagine what else could be named that. |

That help any? Can I get you any other info? |
