Well, actually, rkhunter just warns a daemon listens on TCP port 6667
which is used by IRC bot.

To disable this warning, just add the following to your rkhunter.conf
file:
PORT_WHITELIST="TCP:6667"
or better:
PORT_WHITELIST="/usr/bin/znc"

I have added an entry about this to README.Debian.

Cheers,
Julien
