Topic: RKHunter Daily Message

[paul_NZ]

SME 7.4 with ALL updates applied ... since the latest update the daily rkhunter email is recording

/etc/cron.daily/01-rkhunter:

Warning: The SSH and rkhunter configuration options should be the same:
         SSH configuration option 'PermitRootLogin': yes
         Rkhunter configuration option 'ALLOW_SSH_ROOT_USER': no

One or more warnings have been found while checking the system.
Please check the log file (/var/log/rkhunter.log)
/etc/cron.daily/sa_update:

'spamassassin' is not a valid service name

The 'spamassassin' message is new and I wish to know if this is an 'expected' message  (re spamassassin) and if not what corrective action is required?

Thanks

hi

the only action required is to search in the bugzilla: there's a bug about it..
btw, it's only noise, you can safely ignore

We should add this to the FAQ... where do you think it should go? Perhaps under KnownProblems somewhere?

I agree we should add it to FAQ.
Since we usually get this topic after a YUM update, maybe we should put it in YUM Updates as "rkhunter warning after updates"; rather than a "Known Problem" because it really isn't a problem just a mismatch.
