yes, really.  Look at the attributes of those files:
$ lsattr /bin/ls
------------- /bin/ls

Modifications to the mode, size, or attributes of system binaries like
'ls' and 'netstat' are usually good indications that you've been hacked.

Also, try verifying packages like 'fileutils' or 'net-tools':
rpm -V fileutils

If you have an FTP server, and haven't patched to the latest revision
from Red Hat's errata, that was probably the point of entry.
