 There appears to be a misunderstanding.  I'm not talking about a system
that I have.  I cannot pre-trojan get ANYTHING about it.  I didn't ask that.
I knew about Tripwire years ago, and wrote my own to check multiple systems
across a network.  If I wondered about that I would have asked.  I didn't.
Anyone care to answer what I DID ask?

The real answer would be to install tripwire after you install
your operating systems. and thoughts on commercial software that matches
checksums of binary files for specific version information or installed
default to that particular OS. This would make a great idea for a gnu
project. anyone know if anything of this type has been introduced into
the
community?
