Okay, thanks for that. Since curl also failed it indicates that it is not
something peculiar to wget. (Although because the transfer works on other
servers (I assume with the same version wget), we could have deduced that
anyway.)

A quick google for similar problems isn't revealing too much. However, you
may want to try running:

   wget -T 10 --tries=5 -O /tmp/bdoor.dat
      http://rkhunter.sourceforge.net/1.3/backdoorports.dat

I'm not convinced that it will work. If it fails then we may have to take a
look at what the network is doing.

I checked all 4 servers doing the rkhunter --update daily (the one failing
plus the # that are in the same location as it) and yes, they are all using
the same wget version:
GNU Wget 1.11.4 Red Hat modified

I tried the latest wget command you suggested and this is what happens:

[root@ctc3650f tmp]# wget -T 10 --tries=5 -O /tmp/bdoor.dat
http://rkhunter.sourceforge.net/1.3/backdoorports                   .dat

[root@ctc3650f tmp]#            (entire log is attached)

Again, it puts the file in /tmp but it is empty.

It does not appear to be a very large file, so it seems strange it would not
be able to sustain the network connection long enough to download it.  Is
there something I can run to test if there is a network issue with this
server?  (sorry, not my area of expertise).

Thanks!
Julie

Do other servers download the file successfully?

Yes, the other 3 servers download all 4 of the .dat files successfully.

This particular server downloads the other .dat files successfully
(mirrors.dat, programs_bad.dat, suspscan.dat), it just fails when it
attempts to download the backdoorports.dat file.

Thank you.

So it's not rkhunter problem. You have to troubleshoot it - look with a
network traffic sniffer for example.

Okay, you first need to run '/sbin/ifconfig' to find which network
interfaces you have. You probably want something like 'eth0'.
Then in a console, and as root, run:

  tcpdump -i eth0 -n net 216.34.181.96

In a different console then run 'rkhunter --update'.
The first console should show the network traffic between your server
and sourceforge. Can you show us the output please.

Julie,

Your machine is probably affected by a network issue, and my guess is that
it's related to broken PMTU detection.

Confirming this is indeed the case should be easy: lower the MTU of the
[public] network interface to 300bytes, and retry the wget / curl command.

Lowering the MTU is easy:
1. type "ip link show dev eth0" (replace eth0 with your appropriate network
interface).  The first line should have the "mtu" keyword somewhere,
followed by a number -- this is your actual MTU setting. You might want to
make note of it for future restoration
2. type "ip link set dev eth0 mtu 300"
3. re-type the first line, to confirm the mtu has indeed changed.


HTH
Florin
