In Ubuntu 12.04 you set the $REPORT_EMAIL in /etc/default/rkhunter.
Perhaps that differs between the desktop and the laptop?

Hi,
at least the OpenSuse distribution do send emails with the output
from cron runs, usually to 'root@localhost'.
That behavior has been consistent since many OpenSuse versions
including the 12.2 (latest?).
The behavior can be traced though parsing crontab, "-*/15 * * * *
root test -x /usr/lib/cron/run-crons && /usr/lib/cron/run-crons
/dev/null 2>&1".
/etc/crontab shows:
# m h dom mon dow user command
17 * * * * root cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly
25 6 * * * root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts
--report /etc/cron.daily )
47 6 * * 7 root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts
--report /etc/cron.weekly )
52 6 1 * * root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts
--report /etc/cron.monthly )
Extract from '/usr/lib/cron/run-crons':
# CRON Result EMail is sent to
if test -z "$MAILTO" ; then
SEND_TO="root"
else
SEND_TO="$MAILTO"
fi
Debian is a little different. As I said in a previous post:
/etc/cron.daily/rkhunter looks like this (in part):
case "$CRON_DAILY_RUN" in
[Yy]*)
OUTFILE=`mktemp` || exit 1
/usr/bin/nice -n $NICE $RKHUNTER --cronjob
--report-warnings-only --appendlog > $OUTFILE
if [ -s "$OUTFILE" ]; then
(
echo "Subject: [rkhunter] $(hostname -f) - Daily report"
echo "To: $REPORT_EMAIL"
echo ""
cat $OUTFILE
# ) | /usr/sbin/sendmail $REPORT_EMAIL
) | /usr/bin/msmtp $REPORT_EMAIL
fi
rm -f $OUTFILE
;;
*)
exit 0
;;
esac
which looks right but C (I presume that's what it is) isn't my strong
point.
Also /etc/anacrontab contains:
# These replace cron's entries
1 5 cron.daily nice run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily
7 10 cron.weekly nice run-parts --report
/etc/cron.weekly
@monthly 15 cron.monthly nice run-parts --report
/etc/cron.monthly
Unless I'm missing something it all looks right. BTW as I've also said before
This is all identical to my desktop box which faithfully sends me a
report every day.
I remain perplexed.
Thanks for the effort. Anyone else have an idea?
