Description

This module is a fork from mmz-srf

Because I remanage the organization of the manifests, I decided to rebuild a new repository.

This module works under RedHat, CentOS 6+.

Setup

What module affects

Manage rkhunter installation and configuration with Puppet.

Features

• Manage 'allmost' all config entries (some of them dont make sense in server environments)
• Manage your whitelists
• The update and check cronjob is called staggered (predefined timewindow)

Minimal configuration

class yourclass{
  include ::rkhunter
  class {'rkhunter::cron':}
}

A bit bigger configuration

class yourclass{
  class { 'rkhunter':
    allow_ssh_root_user         => 'yes',
    shared_lib_whitelist        => [ '/lib/snoopy.so' ],
    allow_syslog_remote_logging => "1",
    scriptwhitelist             => [ 
      '/bin/egrep',
      '/bin/fgrep',
      '/bin/which',
      '/usr/bin/groups',
      '/usr/bin/ldd',
      '/usr/bin/lwp-request',
      '/usr/sbin/adduser',
      '/usr/sbin/prelink',
      '/usr/bin/unhide.rb',
    ],
  }
  class {'rkhunter::cron':}
}
