In that case ps and other commands may not report the process you are looking for. It sounds like you are convinced the box is spewing spam, you best bet is to shut it down and reload it from a known good backup. Even if you did track down the specific script, which would most likely require you to examine all items under /tmp manually, the spammer may have a back door installed that they will use to install the spam package again, or since you obviously tried to remove the first one they might just trash the system. Best bet is to re-install and secure the system. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
