I have just seen the following when typing "screen -r"

        9876.RemoteAssistance_SSH_NoMon_pf      (Detached)
        9828.RemoteAssistance_Web_pf    (Detached)
        9771.RemoteAssistance_SSH_pf    (Detached)

I have never seen these before and certainly haven't enabled remote assistance. Has my system been compromised?

Thanks,

Chris

Hi Chris,

Hmmm... that does seem a little strange. I would suggest that you Mantis this so that it can be investigated or past as 'normal'

You can add this to the Mantis bug tracking Db here http://mantis.linuxmce.org/my_view_page.php
