Hi Dimitri

yes, i ve modified the conf for RPM and i ve run "rkhunter --propupd" 
afterwards. i 'm not that worried whether i have a rootkit. i only want 
to have some directives, as to how to handle the warnings and the error 
codes. for example, i had no idea what is prelink, but now that you ve 
sent it, i googled and i found something new. so thanks :) i really 
appreciate it. :)
