     i am developing a small host integrity scanner / checker, to hunt
 rootkits and trojans. offcourse, i need to add more methods /
 techniques to detect. I am currently hashing out important files like
 kernel, /boot dir and System.map files. Is there any other possible
 way to code it better and anyother suggestion would be really helpful
 in my coding.

Don't reinvent the wheel -- just use Tripwire.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/tripwire/ for the open source version,
or http://www.tripwire.com/products/ for the commercial version if you
need something beefier. Based on what you've said in your message, it
sounds like the open source version will work just fine.

Cheers,
Terry
