Do you want your Linux computer more secure? In fact, this is not difficult, here there are five tools to help you reach this goal. Chkrootkit first introduces Chkrootkit, which is designed to check for many widely known rootkit (in Chkrootkit), where there are lists of these rootkit). Running Chkrookit is very simple: Download the source code, unwound the package, tapping the Make in the path unopened. After completing, Chkrootkit is always at any time. This is an example of an output in my machine: [root @ JD chkrootkit-0.34] # ./chkrootkit rootdir is `/ 'checking` AMD' ... NOT FOUND CHECKING `Basename '... NOT INFECTED CHECKING `Biff '... not found checking` chfn' ... NOT INFECTED CHECKING `Chsh '... Not infected Checking` Cron' ... Not Infected Checking `Date '... Not Infected Checking` du' .. . NOT INFECTED CHECKING `DIRNAME '... NOT INFECTED CHECKING` Echo' ... Not infected checking `Egrep '... NOT INFECTED CHECKING` ENV' ... NOT INFECTED CHECKING `FIND '... NOT INFECTED [. ..] Chkrootkit is a very good utility, it can further make us convinced that our machine is not black. It can be said that I have been looking for such a good tool that enables network monitoring and basic network security. In the process of doing this study, I encountered the following programs, including Netsaint, OpenNMS, NMAP, Bastille Linux, and Snort. Netsaint NetSaint is a simple, web-based utility that monitors your network. It even has a WAP (Wireless Access Protocol) interface. It supports a powerful plug-in mechanism to increase additional features and features. When I put it with Netsaint, the only thing I don't like is that it claims to be a sub-item of an open source code community. If the following features, Netsaint may have problems as an auxiliary item of the open source community: 1. There are many features 2. There are not too many documents 3. Distribution plan 4. No technical support 5. Difficult installation 6 I didn't pack it into the rpm file, I am particularly annoyed to the 6th point, but I have been trapped in the open source, I have a long time in the open source, and I will pay all of these while compiling PostgreSQL or Apache to customize the parameters and optimization performance. The source code is tired. I just want to knock into rpm -i to complete the work. In any case, I seem to have a topic. OpenNMS continues to introduce, OpenNMS appears to be a good program. I used to download and install it, but I can't let it work normally, but this is the previous thing, I think it has made a lot of improvements after all. If you are familiar with HP's OpenView network node management product, you will like OpenNMS.
