In the rkhunter.conf file it says to burn the rkhunter.dat to a CD and
link to it.

So I burned the CD, mounted the CD, and made a link from the
/var/lib/rkhunter/db directory to the /mnt directory.

When I run rkhunter it complains:

"The rkhunter.dat file is a symbolic link:
/var/lib/rkhunter/db/rkhunter.dat This is a security problem. The link
points to another file, and that file may be modified by rkhunter."

I'd like to use the CD.

Do I just comment out line #14634 in /usr/bin/rkhunter and rock on?
Will that work?

Or is there a reason that I should not run rkhunter.dat from a CD as the
.conf suggests?

Thanks,
Conrad
