That depends on your OS. No one can really answer this question for you, it's like any operating system, there's thousands of files hidden all over the filesystem, you're not expected to know what each does but it's still your responsibility to try and find out whether things can be whitelisted or not. After all, no one can know your OS better than you. > If I'm right, how can I prevent rkhunter from sending me the same > warnings every day? Look into the rkhunter.conf file and you'll see plenty of examples on how you can whitelist.
