Actually, just download & install initscripts & the programs you need
(syslog, sendmail, cron, etc) to get them back. Trouble, yes. But not a
complete reinstall.
Now, the question still remains what caused it to happen in the first
place. If a breakin is the answer, you need a reinstall regardless as
I'll guarantee there are other problems you haven't even located yet.
