Another very good supplimentary tool, used in linux, is the netstat tool
used in such a fashion:

                             #netstat -veenp | more

the reason for the pipe is that you will get tons of info on ports,
datagrams,unix connections, you name it.  You will actually see what process
has ownership to what object or process in linux.  Some builds of linux's
netstat command does not support the "p" flag though.  I suppose you can do
this netstat during a supposed recipient of an exploit or if things seems
wierd.

Now, I use a program called 'check-ps' that checks for proc's and ps's
structure and kills unknown processes.  I'll let you know now that if you
install this program and do not daemonize it, it'll leave hard to delete
temp folders/directories like this:

                                . ???!??????000!!  ??

Is that wild or what???!!  Guess i'll need to contact the creator for tips
on these directory deletions.
