Unnilennium aka Jean-Philippe PIALASSE (Contrib)
Description
- Rkhunter searches for rootkits and other abnormalities.
it needs the packages smeserver-rkhunter and rkhunter
Installation
- Log in (with username root) to the SMEserver console.

You will get a y/N-question, answer y if it looks fine. There is no need to reboot the server. - you should then issue:
signal-event remoteaccess-update
Alternatively you can use the server-manager panel "Software installer" to add a new package and select smeserver-Rkhunter (repo smecontribs must be enabled) then do the reconfiguration and reboot task, instead of steps 1 and 2, then refresh your browser and configure Rkhunter,.
Editing configuration
as root you can check the current configuration :
db configuration show rkhunter rkhunter=service DisableTests=apps,suspscan,system_commands status=enabled
to set a new value just issue ( where you change VALUE and OPTION by the appropriate data):
db configuration setprop rkhunter OPTION VALUE signal-event remoteaccess-update
DisableTests
here you can set a string of disabled tests separated by ","(default is apps,suspscan,system_commands)
as an example you can avoid alert about deleted file by adding ,deleted_files ( see bug [SME: 3830])
