RE: chkrootkit and lkm

2003-11-26 Thread Michael Parkinson

Umm, I have the same problem.

If I kill Exim and Spamassassin no hidden processes reported.

Under normal load sometimes get 1-7 hidden processes.   Was is a state of
panic but it does appear that Exim and Spamassassin combined do create false
positives.

Can this be fixed?

 I have the same problem.. I believe it's a bug in chkrootkit


Do you stop the services before running chkrootkit?

It can append that chkrootkit report false positive on machine still
running services. I had the experience with exim. When I stop it I had
no false positive...

Logging User Activity

2003-05-14 Thread Michael Parkinson
Dear All,

Currently implementing a number of modifications to our internal security
policies and one addition I am attempting to add is the full logging of user
activity.

I cannot find any simple way of achieving this within the standard doc's and
searching the web for log user activity linux debian does throw up some
not particularly useful links, including a package for filtering my users
output to the FBI, not much good for the UK.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

With thanks

Mike
