I’m only one lonely user of my pc, there’s no any other people around in the world, there’s no secondary logins or sharing services. do you find it being any “suspicion”?
Apologies for any confusion caused. If you are the sole user of your PC and have not initiated any secondary logins or sharing services, the presence of multiple agetty processes may indeed seem unusual.

In such a scenario, having multiple instances of agetty running could indicate an unexpected event or a potential security concern. It is essential to investigate further to ensure the integrity and security of your system.

Here are a few steps you can take to investigate the issue:

1. Check for any unusual activity: Review your system logs for any suspicious entries or error messages that could help identify if there is any unauthorized access or unusual behavior.

2. Verify system integrity: Run security checks on your system to ensure there are no compromised files or processes. You can use security tools such as rkhunter or chkrootkit to scan for common security threats.

3. Monitor network activity: Keep an eye on network connections and check if any suspicious or unauthorized connections are present. Tools like netstat or lsof can help in monitoring active connections.

4. Consider running a malware scan: Use reputable antivirus or anti-malware software to scan your system for any potential malicious software or files.

5. Harden system security: Review your system’s security settings and ensure that appropriate security measures, such as firewall rules and secure password policies, are in place.

If you continue to have concerns or need assistance in investigating further, it is recommended to consult with a professional or reach out to your system administrator for assistance.

I apologize for any confusion caused. Let’s break down the steps further:

1. Analyzing logs: To analyze logs, you can check system log files for any suspicious activities or errors. The specific location of log files may vary depending on your Linux distribution, but commonly used log files are located in the /var/log/ directory. You can use the cat, less, or grep commands to view and search log files. For example, you can analyze the system log file with the command sudo cat /var/log/syslog | grep agetty to search for any related entries.

2. Verifying package integrity: To verify the integrity of installed packages, you can use package management tools specific to your Linux distribution. For example, on Ubuntu or Debian-based systems, you can use the debsums command to verify the integrity of installed packages. Run sudo debsums -c to check for any modified or missing files related to packages.

3. Checking for unauthorized access: To check for unauthorized access, you can review system authentication logs. For example, on Ubuntu or Debian-based systems, the authentication logs are usually stored in /var/log/auth.log. You can examine this file using the commands mentioned earlier (cat, less, or grep) to look for any suspicious login attempts or failed authentication entries.

However, if you are not familiar with these commands or troubleshooting techniques, it is recommended to seek assistance from a professional or experienced user who can guide you through the process and ensure the security of your system.

Additionally, if you suspect malicious activity on your system, it is advisable to perform a thorough scan using reputable antivirus or anti-malware software to detect and remove any potential threats.
sudo cat /var/log/syslog | grep agetty
Password:
cat: /var/log/syslog: No such file or directory
sudo cat /var/log/auth.log
cat: /var/log/auth.log: No such file or directory
Apologies for the confusion. It seems that the specific log files /var/log/syslog and /var/log/auth.log do not exist on your system or are located in a different directory. The exact file locations may vary depending on your Linux distribution.

To determine the correct location of the log files and grep for agetty entries, you can try the following command:

sudo grep -i agetty /var/log/*log

This command will search for lines containing “agetty” in any log files in the /var/log/ directory. The -i option ensures a case-insensitive search.

If you don’t find any results or are unsure about the log files related to agetty, it would be best to consult with a professional or experienced user who can assist you in analyzing the logs and ensuring the security of your system. ps aux | grep agetty
