[gentoo-user] gentoo and rootkit hunter

[John Covici]

Hi.  I downloaded rootkithunter a few days ago and discovered that it
was not looking for the apache modules in the correct place.  Its a
script so I can find and modify the variable, but I wonder if there is
a correct way to do this, given the kind of app we are dealing with
here.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

This is the sort of thing that could be handled by the ebuild, so a bug
report on b.g.o is in order. Really, it's a bug in rkhunter, IMO, you
should be able to specify MOD_DIRS or HTTPDDIRS in the config file.

Can't disagree with that.  I will see how far I get with this one.
