It didn't fix my problem though. I still can't startx and when I try to log into my account it says "No directory /home/me" but it _IS_ there with rwx permissions for owner. I plan to re-install but after seeing the thread on compromised systems I started to wonder. I ran nmap: PORT STATE SERVICE 22/tcp open ssh 80/tcp open http 111/tcp open rpcbind 443/tcp open https 515/tcp open printer I have (had) a web server running I tried setting up ssh once and I believe it was set up to use keys (SSH2).

Could this be related to having changed file permissions? I tried to run chkrootkit but I couldn't find it though I think it's installed somewhere. Does it look to YOU like someone's hijacked my system beyond repair with a reinstall? Thanks and sorry for the length (of the email).
