[cobalt-users] Two odd files? Anyone help explain?

["Todd Kirk" <tkirk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

G'day all, 

Firstly this is a RAQ4R and I am logged in as su, I see two files that I
don't know what they are and I cannot locate an explanation in the
archives/google. Rootkit 0.35 checks clean, no funny bandwidth usage, no
funny logs, no funny activety on the box at all.

I suspect another issue not worth investigating but I wish to learn what
these are, or how they're created? Notice the '252932192_l' file is 0 in
size? Further down I have pasted some of the text from the 'q' file,
seems currupted or something?  -

-rw-r--r--   1 root     root            0 Mar  6 17:44 252932192_l
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root         5662 Oct  5  2001 q

- TEXT PASTE FROM 'q' FILE -
SNMPGET(1)                                             SNMPGET(1)
