Hi All, I need your help in the following matter.
As i dont know much about this so i am putting a query here. One of my friend is facing a problem. they have a linux box as mail/proxy server having two interfaces one is connected to a private wireless network which is having a router that can be connected to other private networks. The another interface is connected to their internal LAN. now on that server they found an unknown directory (with ... name) in root partition which they suspect as sniffing one and this directory eats up the whole root partition. thats all they know in this current situation. can anybody tell me what could be the reason behind the creation of this unknown directory. is the system hacked or any vulnerability causing this problem. and is it possible that the directory is doing some sniffing there in root partition. I would like to know all the possibilities and consequenses related to this auto created directory. and also how to overcome this problem.is there any other info available on net for this kind of issue. Any help will be appreciated.
