Paul, Rkhunter is a great tool. However, it isn't always (usually?) an "install and forget" type of program. Yous installation simply needs some tweaking to be adapted to the particular configuration of your server. rkhunter.conf is where you make those tweaks. It's pretty well commented. You can easily tweak it yourself, or go back to the third-party installer and say, "Hey! ... ". The first few warnings are simply rkhunter doing its job (e.g if a new user is added to your system, rkhunter will alert you. If you've configured SSH to allow root login [not a best practice, rkhunter will warn you.). Most of the rest should probably be "whitelisted". All of that stuff can be done in rkhunter.conf. After changes, be syre to run "rkhunter --propupd". Then, run "rkhunter -c" to go through a check so that you can see the output, and make any necessary cahnges accordingly.
