Newest 'chkrootkit' rpm available...
Hi, Based on the .spec file coming with SUSE 9.3, I prepared an rpm of the newest version of the chkrootkit [ http://www.chkrootkit.org/ ] security software for SUSE 9.1. Both the binary and the source rpm packages are available: http://homepage.univie.ac.at/balazs.melikant/chkrootkit-0.45-1.peli91.i686.r... http://homepage.univie.ac.at/balazs.melikant/chkrootkit-0.45-1.peli91.src.rp... This release is not only a newer version, but contains various fixes in comparison to SUSE 9.3. In addition please note, that there is also a weekly cron-script included, which allows you to check your computer automatically and mails you the results. Best regards, Pelibali Ps. I would like to give credit to Patrick Shanahan, whose 'rkhunter' package gave me the idea to publish the above stuff :)

Thanks for the 'correction', but there was no mistake at my side;) Based on the idea of rpm-packagin' a nice software appeared in a new version, I went for 'chkrootkit'. If you check the .spec file, you will immediately recognize, that how I prepared the cron script is almost identical to the way you managed in the 'rkhunter' rpm. :) This should also explain the credit given to you; the real-author of 'rkhunter' was mentioned already many times on the list together with the official homepage of that tool... By the way I redesigned a little the rkhunter package provided by you, even that probably I shouldn't be proud on my preliminary and extremely undesigned page: http://homepage.univie.ac.at/balazs.melikant/ Best regards, Pelibali (~Balazs MELIKANT)
