When this redhat box I ended up admining was rooted (not my fault, really ;p),
there were all kinds of weird modules loaded into the kernel to do 
funny sh*t that my IDS wouldn't know about, even if I'd had one installed. heh.
Neither would I have known for that matter, they had awful cryptic unreadable 
binary names.
