Hello all, I have recently upgraded my Fedora box from FC6 to F8. I did not simply copy across my rkhunter.conf file, but gradually re-introduced the configurations step-by-step to see what would need to be changed.
I have now eliminated all the errors and warnings except one: "Warning: The syslog daemon is running, but no configuration file can be found." On checking, I found that my FC6 install did indeed have a /etc/syslog.conf file and the F8 install does not. It *does* however have a /etc/rsyslog.conf file which is more or less identical. Changing the relevant section in rkhunter.conf from: # # This setting tells rkhunter the pathname to the syslog configuration # file. This setting will be worked out by rkhunter, and so should not # usually need to be set. # #SYSLOG_CONFIG_FILE=/etc/syslog.conf to: SYSLOG_CONFIG_FILE=/etc/rsyslog.conf of course fixes this. I thought I would let you know about this in case it would be possible to deal with it automatically in a future version of RKH. Any idea why Red Hat / Fedora have made this change? Thanks again for a great product... Mark
