I got hit by a rootkit. The hacker must have shut down the daemon. Is there a way to clean out the system from the SK rootkit? Please let me know! I know a re-install is suggested but this is the second time this is happenning and I want to find a way to tackle this with the minimum downtime!!
I am running redhat linux 7.0.
Please advice...

thanks
