PHP Upgrade and hidden files security concern

Belaird · May 15, 2006

I recently upgrade PHP to 4.4.2 during an APache update, and these hidden files appeared, and are being flagged by rootkit chk. Are these normal or a security concern, can I ignore them?

/usr/lib/php/.registry
/usr/lib/php/.registry/.channel.pecl.php.net
/usr/lib/php/.registry/.channel.__uri
/usr/lib/php/.channels
/usr/lib/php/.channels/.alias

I had some work done on my server by chirpys company (configserver.com), he kindly informed me that these are infact false positives
