ptrace24 - How It apeared in my box?

[Jairo Tcatchenco <jairo () adaesp sp gov br>]

       Hello all!

   Using chkrootkit tool, I found a root kit inside my box. A door was 
opened and I haven't found yet how they putted it there (there is a 
folder in tmp, called ..\ \ \ with a lot of malicious files). I left 
just the basic doors opened (ntp, domain, ssh, http, https).  Could 
someone explain how they putted it there?

       Thanks.
