Can I just check - it looks from what you've said that you're trying to type 1s (that's a number one followed by a lower-case letter 'S') rather than ls (that's a lower-case letter 'L' followed by a lower-case letter 'S', which is the correct command).
If that's what you've been doing, could you try again with the correct command name and see what happens please ?
If you have been typing it correctly then your system must be quite badly damaged or missing some very fundamental binaries, since the ls command is pretty much as common as it gets on any UNIX-style system.
You are right. I was doing it wrong. It did look like a 1 to me...so this is what I got:
Tech support got back to me last night said it was a brute force attack (?) and that my install of "ban to fail" stopped it. But to me it looks as if it was run from "inside my computer". It slowed the server down to a crawl. also legitimate emails have stopped being able to send to comcast, Verizon, yahoo,etc. Have contacted them but they say we are not on their black list. Just can't figure this out. I have a minimal tech support package so they say "You have this....and you need to do this....good luck....Oh and by the way you can upgrade for $$$".
Hello,
Please advise a script/command to remove the following line for a file

TWFILES(5) File Formats Manual TWFILES(5)NAME
twfiles - overview of files used by Tripwire and file backup process
DESCRIPTION
Configuration File
default: /etc/tripwire/tw.cfg
The configuration file stores system-specific information, such as the location of Tripwire data files. The configuration settings are gen-
erated during the installation process, but can be changed by the system administrator at any time. See the twconfig(4) man page for a
more complete discussion.
Policy File
default: /etc/tripwire/tw.pol
The policy file consists of a series of rules specifying the system objects that Tripwire should monitor, and the data for each object that
should be collected and stored in the database file. Should unexpected changes occur, the policy file can describe the person to be noti-
fied and the severity of the violation. See the policyguide.txt file in the policy directory and the twpolicy(4) man page for a more com-
plete discussion.
Database File
default: /var/lib/$(HOSTNAME).twd
The database file serves as the baseline for integrity checking. After installation, Tripwire creates the initial database file, a "snap-
shot" of the filesystem in a known secure state. Later, when an integrity check is run, Tripwire compares each system object described in
the policy file against its corresponding entry in the database. A report is created, and if an object has changed outside of constraints
defined in the policy file, a violation is reported. See the tripwire(8) and twprint(8) man pages for more information on creating and
maintaining database files.
Report Files
default: /var/lib/tripwire/report/$(HOSTNAME)-$(DATE).twr
Once the above three files have been created, Tripwire can run an integrity check and search for any differences between the current system
and the data stored in the "baseline" Tripwire database. This information is archived into report files, a collection of rule violations
discovered during an integrity check. With the appropriate settings, a report can also be emailed to one or more recipients. See the
tripwire(8) and twprint(8) man pages for information on creating and printing report files.
Key Files
defaults: /etc/tripwire/site.key and /etc/tripwire/$(HOSTNAME)-local.key
It is critical that Tripwire files be protected from unauthorized access--an attacker who is able to modify these files can subvert Trip-
wire operation. For this reason, all of the above files are signed using public key cryptography to prevent unauthorized modification.
Two separate sets of keys protect critical Tripwire data files. One or both of these key sets is necessary for performing almost every
Tripwire task.
The site key is used to protect files that could be used across several systems. This includes the policy and configuration files. The
local key is used to protect files specific to the local machine, such as the Tripwire database. The local key may also be used for sign-
ing integrity check reports. See the twadmin(8) man page for more information on keys.
File Backup
To prevent the accidental deletion of important data, Tripwire automatically creates backup files whenever any Tripwire file is overwrit-
ten. The existing file will be renamed with a .bak extension, and the new version of the file will take its place. Only one backup copy
for each filename can exist at any time. If a backup copy of a file already exists, the older backup file will be deleted and replaced
with the newer one.
File backup is an integral part of Tripwire, and cannot be removed or changed.
