Hi!

I'd be grateful if someone could answer a couple of questions ...

1. I'm aware that in principle it checks for changes to key files that
might indicate a replacement by a rootkit/virus, and I've already set
up my installation to check against my package manager's details (DPKG
in my case), however there are also rootkit-specific tests run by RKH
that are listed toward the end of the 'check' process. Notably absent
from this list are some recent nasties such as HiddenWasp - is this
because the signatures haven't been updated yet, or would it be
detected by more generic checks that mean it doesn't need specific
checks to be performed?

2. what is the process, and how often are the RKH signatures updated?

Thanks for your help.
Rob
