RKhunter installation

[vinodt]

This tool scans for rootkits, backdoors and local exploits by running tests like:

- MD5 hash compare
- Look for default files used by rootkits
- Wrong file permissions for binaries
- Look for suspected strings in LKM and KLD modules
- Look for hidden files
- Optional scan within plaintext and binary files

Please follow the below steps to scan your system using RootKit Hunter.

1) Go to “/opt” and download the latest RootKit Hunter from here >> http://sourceforge.net/projects/rkhunter/

cd /opt
wget http://nchc.dl.sourceforge.net/project/rkhunter/rkhunter/1.4.0/rkhunter-1.4.0.tar.gz
tar -xvf rkhunter-1.4.0.tar.gz
cd rkhunter-1.4.0

./installer.sh --install

rkhunter --update

rkhunter -c -sk

That’s it. It will scan the local system and will give you a detailed out put.
