Who remembers when rootkit hunter started showing problems and
Debian said they where false positive problems? I think it was
sometime during the development of Stretch. Well they fixed rootkit
hunter to not show those problems any longer and so goes systemd,
one BIG FAT security problem and has made security software pretty
much useless. At lest with a firewall and no systemd you can stop
kernel calls to get outside http or at lest I can. I think it's to
bad we have to live with a kernel that's passing our activity to
outside sources. I have this stuff logged, it can't be denied.
I hope you won't take this the wrong way, but: What specifically are
you talking about?
The first 60% of that paragraph seems to be some sort of odd and rather
elliptical complaint about systemd. The latter 40% appears to be a
comment (one with no obvious segue from the first 60%) about some sort of
bad behaviour by your kernel. Perhaps you wouldn't mind explaining.
And perhaps switching to a more meaningful Subject header, while you're
at it.
(rkhunter throughout its history has had problems with Type I errors
aka false positives, and probably that will remain an ongoing problem.)
Don't take this the wrong way but it sounds like you didn't read or
recall the incident I remember. And you have nothing helpful to add?
Errors while testing upstream can tell tales, a lot of adjustments where
made to Debian in order to accommodate systemd, I have a hard time
seeing where the user received any accommodations.
