What is the rootkit item that appears to be added to the SVN of trunk? Thanks, Marty
Its not really a rootkit... Its installs some screen and emacs profiles that the FreeSwitch Dev Team use all the time...

A few files which you can choose to install to let the Freeswitch developers access your machine remotely if you ask them to look at a problem you're having with Freeswitch. It's not a real rootkit - just the SSH public key for their private key (so they don't need a password) and configuration files for bash + emacs (so they're working in the environment they're used to). It doesn't burrow into your OS, hide itself or any of the other insidious things a real rootkit does, and once you delete the files they can no longer access your machine. It isn't installed unless you choose to do so. -Steve 2008/12/7 Martin Joseph <astmac@stillnewt.org>:
