ELS - Easy Linux Security script

rkhunter 1.3.4 is out. Also, adding --versioncheck to the dailycron will let the user know when a update is out.

Thanks!

why it dont go to the rite directory ?
-bash: /usr/local/bin/els: No such file or directory
 
I am getting this

/etc/sysctl.conf exists.
sysctl is used to harden the kernel. If you have not hardened your
kernel with sysctl or do not know how to, it is recommended to have
ELS do it for you. Your current /etc/sysctl.conf will be backed up to

Need help with ELS

Hi

After installing ELS my server died.

I am on a KVM without internet access as something went wrong.

How can I remove ELS or let it re-install without it needing it needing to check for updates or contact a server outside.

I think it happened just after the eaccelerator function it just shut down and that was the end of it.

Thx in advance

PS: I am a complete beginner with this stuff
 
Installed this about 2 weeks ago and is showing no errors at all! I get a daily mail from chkrootkit, changed script so it only mails lines with the term INFECTED. This probably works for about 2 months after which you probably start ignoring the mails.
However ELS installed in a breeze and was very straight forward in configuration. Thanx to the creators of this script! Very nicely done!
 
is it work on openvz VPS ?

--securepartitions : Secure /tmp, /var/tmp, and /dev/shm partitions
: (whether in /etc/fstab or not)
