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

Tried this on the rkhunter list and got only one reply of marginal
usefulness. So........I'll try it here.

Running a desktop pc and a Lenovo laptop, both running Debian 6 and
rkhunter 1.3.6-4. On the desk top I get daily mail from root showing 2
false positives. On the laptop I get no daily mail. Thinking I had
missed something in the rkhunter.conf file I copied the one from the
desktop. No joy. Any ideas/pointers appreciated.

Note: I said I copied the rkhunter.conf from the pc, where I was getting
mail from root, to the laptop. They are, therefore, identical.

Thanks in advance for any help.
