Hello

chkrootkit is certainly very "trigger-happy" but IMHO this is a feature
not a bug. Quoting the README.FALSE-POSITIVES file included with the
package:

"bindshell listens on a lot of ports.  these ports are also used by
other legitimate programs.  chkrootkit's detection algorithm cannot
determine the difference between a legitimate program and bindshell."

IMHO, the best solution is tweaking the report in order to avoid such
message when you *really* know this is a false positive and you already
investigated it.

If you want to discuss it, please go ahead. If not i will close this
bug in a few days.

Greetings, 
Marcos
