NAME
       misc.chk  - Checks contents of root owned startup files as
       well as a variety of miscellaneous potential dangers.

SYNOPSIS
       misc.chk

DESCRIPTION
       misc.chk checks a variety of miscellaneous potential secu-
       rity  problems  that  really  don't  belong anywhere else.
       Currently, it looks to see if tftp & rexecd  are  enabled,
       if  anything run via inetd.conf is writeable or is a shell
       (/bin/sh, /bin/csh, etc.), checks if the uudecode alias is
       in  the mail alias file and not commented out, and finally
       if uudecode is either SUID, or can produce SUID files.

FILES
       /etc/motd
       /etc/inetd.conf
       /usr/lib/aliases
       /bin/sh (and other shells)
