weird files in root
I've just noticed. I have covered my shares and the NAS' name. Shall I be concerned??
Yes, does not work. Even using rm -i won't work, the system should ask me confirmation and I should be able to say "yes" to what I want but no luck.
I believe I will let my CrashPlan to complete the upload first and then I will remove those files :)
What I need to know is: is it safe to do? Any chance they were created by some app?
Also, I could not see a successful access by SSH on the 8th - to be honest I doubt someone was able to get in, my password is not an easy one. Besides SSH, is there anywhere else I should look for clues of someone breaking in?
