RE: [cobalt-users] chkrootkit

["Steven White" <swhite@xxxxxxxx>]

Also remember to reinstall chkrootkit now and then.  Anyone who would gain
access to your system would most likely look for a copy of the program and
possibly alter its functionality.

Another cron job that would wget the latest version and install it would be
handy as well.

Good luck,

Steve

You need a line in your root crontab like this:

30 1 * * * (cd /path/to/chrootkit/dir; ./chkrootkit 2>&1 | mail -s
"SECURE1
daily chkrootkit" root)

(note this is all one line.)
