Not really a concern because the computer is physically very secure.

Just looking at google will show that MANY people have it. As I
mentioned previously, I have:
VERSION: FreeBSD 4.3-RELEASE (GENERIC) #0: Sat Apr 21 10:54:49 GMT 2001

We have a news server running, but that is not the problem, the problem
is that we have not touched or changed the news server in at least
several months, so to have it suddenly record changes is not normal.

Problem is that I can't find anything, so I am hoping the next time they
do something I WILL find something. Its clear they installed sudo, they
hacked the system, they are changing file permissions AND covering sudo
tracks in logs. Clearly they have not COMPLETELY broken root because
they would have deleted their l-x user tracks and just used root
instead. I need to find out WHAT this person wants and what they have
already done.

As for Broot... that concerns me, does anyone else HAVE it, or am I only
one?
