My rkhunter-1.3.4 said that smbd was using Port 2006:

> [03:22:09]   Überprüfe auf TCP Port 2006                   [ Warnung ]
> [03:22:09] Warnung: Netzwerk TCP Port 2006 wird verwendet  by
> /usr/sbin/smbd. Mögliches Rootkit: CB Rootkit or w00tkit Rootkit SSH server

As I read that warning I couldn't see anything listening on port 2006. smbd 
was only listening on its expected ports. I cannot tell by the checksum if the 
smbd binary was compromised as I'm using a source distribution (gentoo). But 
recompiling produced at least a binary with an equal size.

I have no idea where to look further for the source of this warning. Might it 
be possible that rkhunter would even alert if somebody would talk to my smbd 
with the source port 2006?

Is there anything know about false positives in conjunction with port 2006 or 
samba?
