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.
