    You can’t impress me with a bog standard Gentoo. If you want to show power, build a fortress. At least put some tripwire you mostly trip yourself on (program that keeps an encrypted hash database of your system files to find intrusion changes, needs an update with every update of course or it alerts only your negligence).

        I always wondered, did anyone ever find something with it? Wouldn’t a rootkit that is known enough to be in the detection file be outdated? But yes, you read the docs, points to you!

          Yeah rkhunter looks for all the common kits BUT ALSO checks for suspicious changes if enabled as a service.

      Tripwire should encrypt everything and store key in RAM. Shutdown after 30s, if not emergency overwrite string is entered stored coded on real life paper in a vault with a 9 digits alphanumeric lock. 😏
