3.3) How can I automatically run Rootkit Hunter every day?
A. There are several ways that rkhunter can be run via cron.
However,
it must be remembered that cron will automatically email any
output
produced by the program to the root user. Secondly, when the
rkhunter
'--cronjob' option is used, the program will generally not
produce
any output. It is, therefore, necessary to tell rkhunter what
output
should be shown. Typically this will just be any warning
messages,
and this can be achieved by using the '--rwo' (report warnings
only)
option.
For the first example, the rkhunter command could be added
directly
to the root crontab:
30 5 * * * /usr/local/bin/rkhunter --cronjob --update --
rwo
* Note this FAQ item contains aproximately 70 more lines, please do
read, thanks.
