Since your goal is investigation, I would concur with Toby and HIGHLY
recommend Dave Dittrichs document at the url Toby
provided.(http://staff.washington.edu/dittrich/misc/forensics).
Dave's pages give a wealth of information regarding forensics and
investigation. I would also recommend perusing the results of the
Honeynet Project Forensic Challenge. Not only interesting reading,
but provides some insight into the specific steps taken, and tools
used in a forensic analysis

Hi again,

      I perhaps should have made this clear earlier: I am not
wanting to
get this box back into production.  It has been replaced (properly)
by myself.  The machine with the RK15 rootkit has been assigned to
me for investigation.

      Thanks,
