Hi all,

Heeeeelp...

I've just managed to get myself back online after a few days of 
repairing damage caused by my first hack attack.

I got hit by 'luckroot' which basically changes a whole heap of stuff in 
/etc, /bin and all the usuals.  It seems to be an address / port scanner 
which collects stuff and emails it back to someone somewhere ????


I fixed everything (I think except for /dev/hdc, /dev/console and the 
/dev/tty's) 

My question is:  Can I safely force rpm to reinstall the dev package ? 
(without screwing my hard disk settings in the process ?

Also, does anyone know of a service on the net that can attempt to find 
these holes in my firewall / sysconfig without doing damage ?

Thanks,

Andrew E.

PS:   Haven't these hacking  pr??ks got anything better to do with their 
time !!
