Apache on RH9 Crashed (Hacked?)

Upon further inspection I found that my system had been hacked. I found
multiple directories 

/tmp/'usernameonmysystem'-orbit (multiple occurances, one for each
username)
/tmp/ssh1kzaah
/tmp/ssh2...

I think I know what orbit is, and I never installed it, but running a
netstat showed multiple connections to files in these directories. Can
anyone ID this root kit so I can begin pinpointing my security hole?
Google has turned up something called MAC_Daddy, but documentation is
limited. Anyone had experience with this?

Subject: Apache on RH9 Crashed (Hacked?)

Ok I finally got access to my machine to assess the damage, I am running
RH9,
Kernel 2.4.20-19.9 and Apache 2.0.40-21.3.

Here is the error message I recieved when trying to restard httpd:


Stopping httpd:                                            [  OK  ]
Starting httpd: [Tue Aug 19 17:27:50 2003] [error] VirtualHost
_default_:443 --
mixing * ports and non-* ports with a NameVirtualHost address is not
supported,
proceeding with undefined results
                                                           [  OK  ]


Im no to great at interpreting this stuff, but I made no changes to my
system to
cause this error. I had been running stable for roughly 2 weeks with no
problems
and then Apache started delivery 400's instead of serving up pages. Now
I find
this... Any ideas?
