Whatever is the default pcap is what I used.  I compiled with the system's
pcap, not one that may have come with nessus.

Ooh, you got me there.  My last scan was 11/19 and there were...138 hosts
in the results.  I'll add a couple more subnets to get over 500 hosts and
get back to you, just to make you happy.  =)
