If you get this message from rkhunter you might need to run rkhunter -c to find out why.
log into your server and run “rkhunter – – update” this will ensure that your software is up to date.
then run
"rkhunter --propupd"
then
"rkhunter -c"
If you are getting a lot of false positive, you can white list them using the following section in rkhunter.conf:
SCRIPTWHITELIST=NAME_OF_THE_SCRIPT
If it is still not working try:
RTKT_FILE_WHITELIST="FULL PATH TO THE SCRIPT"
