I got the below message on one of my solaris server. This message appeared when booting the server.

Jun 8 12:28:25 <myhost> syslogd: /var/adm/utmpx not owned by root or not mode 644.\nThis file must be owned by root and not writable by\nanyone other than root. This alert is being dropped because of\nthis problem.
Jun 8 12:28:25 <myhost> last message repeated 2 times

Has anyone gotten this message? An ls -l on the file is below.
-rw-rw-r-- 1 adm other 4464 Jun 10 13:36 /var/adm/utmpx


I am kinda worried because a couple months ago, we had a hacker hack into a bunch of our servers. I don't want to go yelling hacker unless I know I have been hacked. Has anyone else seen this message?

Thanks
Mike

At this point you might consider doing a full audit of this system and the move to others depending on your results. Do you have any log archive that you can go back and check to see if this is a leftover of the first intrusion?
