Error message from RKhunter
« on: April 16, 2009, 02:20:58 PM »
Every morning, I receive this message :

Object : rkhunter Daily Run on www

--------------------- Start Rootkit Hunter Update ---------------------
Database directory does not exist: /var/rkhunter/db

---------------------- Start Rootkit Hunter Scan ----------------------
Database directory does not exist: /var/rkhunter/db

----------------------- End Rootkit Hunter Scan -----------------------

How can I get rid of this message ? Create the database directory ?

The directory /var/rkhunter/db certainly exists on my SME 7.4 server..

You could try creating the directory and running an rkhunter scan manually to see what happens using /etc/cron.daily/01-rkhunter

If your system is relatively unmodified, please open a bug report so the devels can figure out why you don't have the db directory.
