Hi Boyd Lynn Gerber
My shell scripting a bit rusty but I got it to work.
your hack snippet:
**************************** Start of Script
*******************************
#!/bin/sh
MY_VERSION="`grep -i ^suse /etc/SuSE-release`"
DBDIR="/share/store/rkhunter/rkhunter/files"
if [ -e /usr/local/etc/rkhunter.conf ]; then
. /usr/local/etc/rkhunter.conf
else
exit 1
fi
/usr/local/bin/rkhunter --update | /bin/mail -s 'rkhunter Daily update
script' admin
if [ `grep -c "${MY_VERSION}" ${DBDIR}/os.dat` == 0 ]; then
echo "999:${MY_VERSION}:/usr/bin/md5sum:/bin:" >> ${DBDIR}/os.dat
fi
***************************** End of script *************************
Cheers
