Hi, |

maybe you can emerge tools like chrootkit or rkhunter for checking your |
| 4 |
box for intruders. Clearly, it wouldn't help, if someone has |
| 5 |
'bruteforced' your password, but if an intruder came throu a vunerable |
| 6 |
application and installed a rootkit or something like that, the tools |
| 7 |
might help you. |

Furthermore it is highly recommended, that your root-password contains |
| 10 |
of a non-dictionay alpha-numeric (at least capitals, lower case letters |
| 11 |
and numbers) 8 character long phrase. |
