================================================ If the installer encounters an existing rkhunter.conf, it will not be overwritten. Instead the installer creates a new configuration file, but with a unique number as its suffix. Please inspect the new configuration file and copy over any changes to the existing configuration file. ================================================ I saw that you had some warning messages too. The README has a little bit about this too: ================================================ NOTE: The first run of 'rkhunter' after installation may give some warning messages. Please see the FAQ file for more details about this. ================================================ John. -- --------------------------------------------------------------- John Horne, University of Plymouth, UK Tel: +44 (0)1752 233914 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fax: +44 (0)1752 233839 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
