SSH as root to your server. DO NOT use telnet

#Type the following
wget ftp://ftp.pangeia.com.br/pub/seg/pac/chkrootkit.tar.gz

#Unpack the tarball using the command
tar xvzf chkrootkit.tar.gz

#Change to the directory it created
cd chkrootkit*

#Compile by typing
make sense

#To use chkrootkit, just type the command
./chkrootkit

#Everything it outputs should be ‘not found’ or ‘not infected’…

#Now,
cd ..

#Then remove the .gz file
rm chkrootkit.tar.gz
