I'm using your rkhunter n my centos 6.5. I tested this script on 5.10 and the email report was working fine. on 6.5 its not working. the email attachment shows a name "noname" 1kb. I couldnt open that. Please refer attached screenshot my daily cron : [/etc/cron.daily]# cat rkhunter.sh #!/bin/sh ( /usr/local/bin/rkhunter --versioncheck /usr/local/bin/rkhunter --update /usr/local/bin/rkhunter --cronjob ) | /bin/mail -s 'rkhunter Daily Run (PutYourServerNameHere)' xxxxxxxxxgmail.com Please advise Thanks

  Hello, Can you please try to use following code in your rkhunter.sh and check it #!/bin/bash /usr/local/bin/rkhunter -c --cronjob 2>&1 | mail -s "Rkhunter daily run on `uname -n`" email@domain.com

  Hello :) Please keep in mind that RKHunter is a third-party application that's not developed by cPanel. Do you notice any different behavior when you run the script manually instead of as a cron job? Thank you.
