Try http://www.cotse.com
Or just go to http://astalavista.box.sk / http://www.rootshell.com and search
for rootkits. Download a few and try them on your servers (at your own risk -
look at the source first, or there might be some crap to ICQ the rootkit author
a copy of the passwords and ip address).
Safer: use nmap, saint and satan scans (saint and satan do a large part of what
you want - but of course won't go ahead and root your box)
