Interesting ...

How accurate is chkproc? 
 If you run chkproc on a server that runs lots of short time processes it 
could report some false positives. chkproc compares the ps output with 
the /proc contents. If processes are created/killed during this operation 
chkproc could point out these PIDs as suspicious.


"no, if you chroot, the binaries from the chroot are used.

use chkrootkit without chrooting - best with full path (/usr/sbin/chkrootkit)"

The problem is if I do not chroot chkrootkit will scan the knoppix CD - tried 
it :). It needs to access the live proc etc on a running system.
