Re: See what a weak password will get ya?
Hi, I haven't caught the start of this thread, but how can you be sure your core utilities have not been altered? Do have a record of how they looked before the crack (a backup, MD5 sums etc, AIDE,Tripwire database)?. IMO, you would really need to examine those binaries on another box against a known equivalent clean copy or backup/AIDE/Tripwire database before really being sure.

I wasn't 100% sure I wasn't cracked when I installed, but I am sure that my core utilities are the same as before this attempt. This and clean chkrootkit are enough for me, as long as I continue to watch what's going on. Thanks everyone, mostly I was just venting, but hopefully this will help prompt anyone who knows of a potential system weakness.

Re: nfs locking daemon?
Yes, lockd. You need to run it on the clients. Awais On Fri, 2004-07-23 at 15:22, Christian Schwarz wrote: Hi! Is there a special nfs locking daemon for NFS-clients? I'm running a server with nfs-kernel-server and on the server there is a lockd process. If I try to log into GNOME 2.2 on the client (which has nfs-mounted home directories), GNOME complains about a problem with your operating system configuration: A common cause of this error is that the nfslock service has been disabled. Unfortunately, I can't find a nfslock package in Debian.
