Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: rkhunter
Running Rootkit Hunter version 1.3.0
I am reasonably sure that
[11:51:08] Checking for hidden files and directories [ Warning ]
[11:51:09] Warning: Hidden directory found: /dev/.static
[11:51:09] Warning: Hidden directory found: /dev/.udev
[11:51:09] Warning: Hidden directory found: /dev/.initramfs
merely means that rkhunter has found a non-standard file - at least as
far as rkhunter is concerned - but which is a default install for Hardy
Heron. In this case I would assume that rkhunter needs to be updated ?
I am using the release candidate of Hardy Heron - installed in free
space at the end of my single hard drive, dual booting with winxp. The
install is a standard setup (no fancy partitions), with all updates,
plus quanta, dvdrip, amarok and k3b with all required libs and apps for
these additions. The only changes I have made via the console have been
to place winxp first in the grub menu, enable ufw (with default deny)
and to make sudo timeout to be zero.
What I would have expected to happen is no warnings - seeing as this is
a clean, new install, done last night and only surfing to known safe
websites, and the limited installation done thus far
