Weird. It looks like a device (like it was created with mknod). It's a character device with setuid 26736:25601. I'm not sure what the major and minor numbers 46 and 111 do. Anyone know? Do an "lsof -n | grep linux" to see if it's in use by anything. lsof might be in /usr/sbin or /sbin. It would be interesting to know what created that.
