portsentry & chkrootkit (Was: Re: [cobalt-users] Chkrootkit query)



Hi Revd,

Do you have portsentry installed?

Disable portsentry on this port. I had the same thing on a testmachine I
installed portsentry on.
I suggest you head on over to portsentry.conf, backup the lines you are
about to edit and delete all references to 31337 from those lines.

After that, or even better before that, add a rule to your ipchains firewall
and deny (and log) all traffic to port 31337.

Have a safe one... Nico
