Rob,

The problem with this approach is too many times I've seen a root job that
install's a rootkit which consists of trojaned versions
of netstat, login, ps, etc. If you have been compromised, none of these things
will show anything out of the ordinary (as the
hacker has intended). Its best to look elsewhere.
