I have an FC2 system which rkhunter reports some suspicious

	/usr/bin/kill

I run FC2 and have a similar issue.  I've run rkhunter --update  

many times

in the hopes of updating the installed database to resolve this  

problem.

Is there a way of updating the the FC2-related rkhunter database in  

order

to resolve this?

I experience the same (for the same files). I tried installing an  

older version of util-linux and everything was fine again. I updated  

util-linux again and it didn't recognize these files again. So I  

wouldn't be to worried. If rkhunter doesn't recognize certain files  

you're supposed to report this on the rkhunter website. I reported  

this issue twice already, but apparently no one has looked into this.

It also doesn't like the fact that root can log in, and that
SSHv1 is permitted to run.

Rightly so. Do not allow these things or change /etc/rkhunter.conf to  

not let it warn you about these things.

Nils.
