I found a backdoor binary file in /tmp directory. The name of that file is "fds". How can I find out who put it there?

Since this file is in /tmp directory, it was most likely put there by a vulnerable Php script. Look into the access log file(s) in /usr/local/apache/domlogs directory for the file "fds" and see if you can find the site that was used to upload the file to your server . Use the following command at the prompt:
    grep -i bds /usr/local/apache/domlogs/* 
OR
    grep -i bds PATH_TO_APACHE_domlogs/*
