Absolutely.
The thing is that the original poster have not provided any information or any thought that lead him to think he has been hacked, so we're just guessing...

I just think he don't have any idea about what's going on on his system, so we don't know if he already ran rkhunter or similar to find out if there's any well-known rootkit installed...

Let's wait...

All the best
Manuel

Attached tmp directory ls -lR, anything unnormal to your eyes there?

If you think you've been rooted, assume it's been done properly*, and do your forensics from RO media.

I think insert linux is a forensic kit, look at distrowatch for it: with a name like that, google's probably not going to help.

At a pinch you can boot the rescue disk and "DO NOI" chroot to the system. Use find to look for strange binaries in strange places, run "rpm -Va" to check for replaced binaries (I don't suppose a negative finding is entirely trustworthy) and "rpm -qa --last" to see what's installed recently.


Also, look at all users' .bash_history; I have seen careless intruders leave evidence there.

You could also compare the sizes of ls, find, ps with the sizes of known-good ones; it's highly likely an intruder would replace those binaries, and some others.




* "Properly" means find, ls, ps, lsof, netstat are all altered to hide the fact you-re 0wned.
