I also kept finding these lock files which would not permit RANCID to  
run, and I would only find out a couple of days later when I noticed  
some notifications not being sent.

Si I know it's a bit drastic, but I placed a script in cron.daily to  
remove these files periodcally.

#!/bin/sh

rm -rf /tmp/.*.lock
==================================================
