[ Warning! ] --------------- /dev/.tmp-22-64 /dev/.udev /etc/.pwd.lock --------------- Please inspect: /dev/.tmp-22-64 (block special (22/64)) [Press <ENTER> to continue] - - - - - 8< - - - - - I seem to recall seeing this issue addressed some time ago but I'm not getting any relevant Google hits.

You need to edit rkhunter.conf and add the files or directories. There
are some examples in the file. I have added the /dev/.udev and
/etc/pwd.lock. I am not sure waht the /dev/.tmp-22-64 file is. Once they
are added it should be clean when running and will fix the error/warning.

/dev/.tmp-22-64 is a temporary file used by udev. It corresponds to /dev/hdd, whatever that might be on that system -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Thanks for your replies, Boyd and Anders. This dovetails with my general recollection of the matter. regards, Carl -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
