"unknown hashes", because I installed rkhunter before file-4.20-i486-1_slack11.0.tgz. This package was not in initial install, was added in /patches (0a9109c5f0a8d44e018b70b140c77a46 file-4.20-i486-1_slack11.0.tgz is the correct md5sum for downloaded package).

Perhaps unSpawn (or the rkhunter devel team) haven't got the new md5sum for this version of file in their database. I emailed one the other day, and they promptly added it, so it might be worth an email to check...
thanks for all the replies. yah i thought it was ok i just wanted to verify. i did do an rkhunter --update before running the check. i also have file installed from /patches. again thanks for the replies, i was just a little paranoid.
