I have during the last 2 weeks or so received messages from RKHunter about:
Warning: The following processes are using deleted files:
Process: (deleted) PID: 3122 File: /usr/bin/perl.#prelink#
Process: (deleted) PID: 4319 File: /usr/bin/perl.#prelink#
Process: (deleted) PID: 4550 File: /usr/bin/perl.#prelink#
My problem is that I'm not sure what the real problem is and what I can do to solve it.
In my opinion it may mean either of these scenarios:
a process is wanting to use a file which has been deleted. This can be a problem since that process can't run correct.
or
a process is accessing a file which is supposed to be deleted. But on the other hand I haven't heard that Linux can access deleted files??
As I prefer to have as few warnings from my system, and I don't like to receive warnings that I don't understand I appriciate some help
