Preface this with we're an all windows shop & my *nix chops are not great. 
Good enough to get things working but not to the point where I always 
understand why some things happen.

Yesterday I set up a new OSSEC server (my first) on Debian 7.1. I have the 
server and 1 agent reporting.

This morning I came in to find the following rule 550 Checksum changed 
alerts for the server.

+/etc/group-
+/etc/passwd
+/etc/init.d/.depend.start
+/etc/init.d/.depend.stop
+/etc/shadow-
+/etc/gshadow
+/etc/shadow
+/etc/gshadow-
+/etc/group
+/etc/passwd-
+/etc/ld.so.cache

The time sequence was between 5:58 & 6:01 so it looks like it was some 
automated process. I've searched and found references to prelinking causing 
this but that doesn't seem to be the issue here (doesn't seem to be 
enabled/installed and apparently ossec handles it properly now anyways?). I 
also checked the files and there doesn't seem to be any new or odd entries. 
I've got strong passwords on the server & this is the only nix box on the 
network.

Any ideas what would cause this?
