I get the following output from chkrootkit:
Checking `chkutmp'... The tty of the following user process(es) were not found in /var/run/utmp ! ! RUID PID TTY CMD ! root 3186 tty7 /usr/bin/Xorg :0 -br -audit 0 -auth /var/gdm/:0.Xauth -nolisten tcp vt7 chkutmp: nothing deleted I don't understand the meaning of this message. This just looks like the X-server process. Can someone please clarify? -- % Randy Yates % "Watching all the days go by... %% Fuquay-Varina, NC % Who are you and who am I?" %%% 919-577-9882 % 'Mission (A World Record)', %%%% <yates@ieee.org> % *A New World Record*, ELO http://home.earthlink.net/~yatescr |
