I have slackware version 10.1.0 installed on an Intel P-IV for some time now and I use this system as desktop. No particular services running on this machine except tcp 37 time tcp 113 auth tcp 22 ssh and occasionally I run X on this system as well and some time download email. Today, I switched on my system and did some usual work. I was busy working with papers and the monitor went off in the standby mode. After sometime when I touched the keyboard the screen came back on. But what made me write this post was a message below that appeared on the prompt: $ rootedrooted exactly as above. I don't think that it appeared by some accident pressing of some keys. (1)How to determine that somebody really rooted this machine? (2)I would like to know what to do next if so?
