Hi,

I used wget and put rkhunter and chkrootkit in /root directory.

When rkhunter unpacked and installed it listed the files here:
/root/rkhunter-1.3.4/files/
and put rkhunter file in /usr/local/bin directory.

I have this in the crontab to update only:
25 5 * * * /usr/local/bin/rkhunter --update > /dev/null 2>&1

When I unpacked and installed chkrootkit it put the files in:
/root/chkrootkit-0.48/

Are these files in the right place on the server?

How would I setup chkrootkit to update and run every day and email me?

Thanks!
