I have never seen this files in RedHat before. 

/tmp/orbit-root
/tmp/ssh-KEskO14981/agent.14981
/tmp/keyring-OuVrZn/sock

What could it be?

/tmp/orbit-root

If your computer gets its IP-address by DHCP, this is probably dhclient. Check with lsof -n | grep orbit as root.

/tmp/ssh-KEskO14981/agent.14981

Looks like the ssh-agent-process. This makes it possible to cache your passphrase when you attempt to do ssh-logins on servers using a key with passphrase, so you don't have to type it in every time.

/tmp/keyring-OuVrZn/sock

Looks like the gnome-keyring-daemon. This stores several credentials for you. This is the socket other applications talk through when they want to fetch credentials from it.
