I just ran into some problems with rkhunter, yumex and pup. I basically tracked it down to a process such as lsof hanging (in the case of rkhunter). What it ended up being was that an nfs mount had hung (the box that the nfs mount connected to was shutdown). I restarted the nfs box, remounted and umounted the nfs share and all was working well again! :-) I killed the hung processes, went into /var/lib/rpm and remove the __db* files to get yumex working and removed the /var/lock/subsys/rkhunter to get rkhunter working. I was starting to get very nervous for a while. :-) -- Linux Home Automation Neil Cherry ncherry@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxha.com/ Main site http://linuxha.blogspot.com/ My HA Blog Author of: Linux Smart Homes For Dummies
