So apparently it's an ongoing situation that hasn't been corrected. 
We also seem to be missing info. What does "weird things happening" 
mean?

RHL (not RHEL) reached End-of-Life years ago. This means you miss 
out on crucial security and other updates. Sure you can keep alive 
an old RHL box if you know what to do but if you don't have the 
knowledge or can't invest the time then a cold migration is the 
only acceptable path. You see it's not only a risk for you or your 
business but all other Internet users.


>/bin/dmesg: FAILED
>/bin/mount: FAILED open or read
"FAILED" means like the file ain't there.


>/bin/dmesg [ BAD ]
>/bin/kill [ BAD ]
>/bin/login [ BAD ]
>/bin/mount [ BAD ]
These have changed contents, but that does not tell you the cause. 
You should verify them against your RPM database or even better 
against RPM's from an installer CD or remote repo.


>Do I have a rootkit installed???
Hard to tell with so little information. I suggest you read these 
two docs before you act on it: Intruder Detection Checklist (CERT): 
http://www.cert.org/tech_tips/intruder_detection_checklist.html 
Steps for Recovering from a UNIX or NT System Compromise (CERT): 
http://www.cert.org/tech_tips/root_compromise.html 

If there's anything you want to ask: go right ahead, but please 
post some more (detailed) information.


Regards, unSpawn
