As root, type "last" (without the quotes). Of course good hackers will have covered their tracks and cleaned up after themselves...


From "man last":

Last  searches  back through the file /var/log/wtmp (or the file desig-
      nated by the -f flag) and displays a list of all users logged  in  (and
      out)  since  that  file  was  created.




I've never done it before, but I believe there are some standard kits to
check for signs of a rooting.



chkrootkit, http://www.chkrootkit.org/



I've heard that it is only possible to be really sure if you have a guaranteed clean copy of the basic UNIX utilities, because skilled hackers will replace some of the utilities chkrootkit uses with hacked copies that will cover their actions. Any suggestions on how to do this?
