Hi folks, I got a rather alarming level-12 message about my system, but I'm not completely sure what it's telling me:
OSSEC HIDS Notification. 2007 Mar 20 06:25:16 Received From: tribble->/var/log/auth.log Rule: 40101 fired (level 12) -> "System user sucessfully logged to the system." Portion of the log(s): Mar 20 06:25:16 tribble su[3663]: + ??? root:nobody The system is an Ubuntu Linux system, and root login is disabled... so what could this potentially mean? I was certainly not awake an logged into this machine at 6:25am, and nobody else should have these priveleges... -- Thorne Lawler Technical Consultant ICT Outsourcing Services | Infrastructure Services | Unix Storage and Delivery KAZ Group Pty Ltd 360 Elizabeth Street | Melbourne Victoria 3000 (03) 9631 1747 | 0408 491 552 | Fax: (03) 9654 7334 [EMAIL PROTECTED] | www.kaz-group.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This communication may contain confidential information and/or copyright material of KAZ Group Pty Ltd ABN 25 002 124 405 and its related bodies corporate.
