thanks

Hi,

Sorry for my late reply, I have just noticed I haven't received some
email related to rkhunter (I am to blame for this).

Would you please confirm you are using rkhunter 1.3+?
Your report doesn't state package information (while you seem to have
used reportbug - if that's the case, please leave the appropriate
pseudo-headers next time).

There might be several causes for the behaviour you describe.

First, please make sure that all the whitelist entries referring
to /etc/.java are commented out (note that in the default configuration
file, both file and directory examples co-exist for this particular
case).

Please check that 'file' is installed correctly (rkhunter depends on it,
but as you haven't let these information in your report, I need to make
sure the package is setup). If not isntalled, your should get a warning
from rkhunter anyway.

Is the filesystem test enabled (or at least not disabled)?

Is /etc/.java a file or a directory?
rkhunter doesn't report empty hidden files.

Regarding wpa_supplicant, it is not a rootkit, I do not see why rkhunter
should report it?

Cheers,
Julien
