Warnings from RKhunter

[PJJ]

Checked my up-to-date installation of 9.10 for root kits using rkhunter and chkrootkit.

RkHunter gives the following warnings:

Checking /dev for suspicious file types [ Warning ]

I believe I had similar warnings with previous installations. I do not have enough background knowledge to interpret and evaluate these warnings.

Can anyone help me out with this one, please?

Re: Warnings from RKhunter

I don't see anything alarming about the output.

As for the unhide warnings, try steps 5 and 6 from here:

Re: Warnings from RKhunter (Solved)

Thank you for the information.

Unhide is installed on my system. I followed step 5 and will execute step6 as soon as possible.
Thanks again.


PS: Steps 5 and 6 took care of the 'unhide' warning.
Nothing found.
