Robert, Test your mail on the server via command line: sudo sendmail -d yourname@yourdom.com enter some text. hit ". ." Use your terminal up/down keys to see if the mail was delivered. Check your mail. Did you get it? Check your installation: command rkhunter --configfile /etc/rkhunter.conf --report-warnings-only --checkall Update the checksums database :command rkhunter --propupdate Update the threats database (the update is done weekly afterwards) : command rkhunter --update The command below is run daily. Its results are send by e-mail to the root user if a problem appear. Run it once to check that everything is setted up right : command rkhunter --configfile /etc/rkhunter.conf --report-warnings-only --checkall On Fri, Apr 12, 2013 at 1:12 PM, Robert Holtzman wrote: > Tried this on the rkhunter list and got only one reply of marginal > usefulness.
