mysql files help

Hi,

My server: Redhat enterprise linux P4 with Cpanel

In my var/lib/mysql directory there are over 1,500 files with the format:

myservername-bin.1234 where 1234 is the numbers starting at 001 and going up to over 1500.

The dates of the files are from 2 years ago up through today.

Does anyone know what these files are and how they get there? I am thinking they may be tmp files, but I want to know for sure before I do anything with them.

Thanks!
