As I wrote that, I decided to install and run chkrootkit on my own
websever. It resulted in:

Checking `lkm'... You have     4 process hidden for readdir command
You have     4 process hidden for ps command

Googling gives me others similarly confused. I am still running 2.6.4 on
this particular box, as it refused to boot into 2.6.6 rpm upgraded
kernel via apt. Dunno why. 

Now downgrading to kernel#2.4.22-1.2199.nptl and we shall see if she
boots or not. 

Is this box really trojaned or what?
