   Well, yes and no :-)
   Soaplab has two parts: AppLab and classes running within Tomcat. AppLab
is responsible for storing result in the place you notice. For these files
there is no utility provided but the following two-line script will do it:
The following should remove all files that are older than 3 days:

       cd /ebi/extserv/soaplab-work/a
       find ./ type f -and -mtime +3 -exec /bin/rm {} \;

   If you install also mySql (which is optional) then classes within
Tomcat stores results in mySQL and in the same time they clean (at least I
hope so :-)) the AppLab results. For clearing the mySql database there is
a sql script in the soaplab/utils directory (in the Soaplab CVS version).

   Cheers,
   Martin
