Can't remember if I posted this before... We're getting warnings from rkhunterWarning: Checking for prerequisites [ Warning ] All file hash checks will be skipped because: This system uses prelinking, but the hash function command does not look like SHA1 or MD5.
Now, googling, I find people saying to rm /etc/prelink.cache, then run rkhunter --propupd.
Works. And then, prelink runs in the middle of the night, via /etc/cron.daily, and when the cron job of rkhunter runs, it's back to complaining.
Anyone have any ideas what's going on here? I don't see anything in the prelink.conf, or any options in the prelink manpage to tell is what hash to use.
in my prior message, that should be in rkhunter.conf

This has come up for me on the most recent upgrade, add the line
HASH_CMD=sha1sum
Got the answer: I had HASH=sha256sum. That didn't work. sha1sum works.
Oh, that, and uncommenting the line in /etc/rkhunter.conf: USER_FILEPROP_FILES_DIRS=/etc/rkhunter.conf.local
Works better, don't'cha know.
Thanks for the help and pushes in the right direction, folks.
