NAME
       nessus - The client part of the Nessus Security Scanner

SYNOPSIS
       nessus  [  -v ] [ -h ] [ -n ] [ -q host port user password
       targets results ]

DESCRIPTION
       The Nessus Security Scanner is a  security  auditing  tool
       made  up  of  two  parts  :  a  server, and a client.  The
       server, nessusd(8) is in charge of  the  attacks,  whereas
       the client nessus provides an interface to the user.

       nessus is an X11 client based on the Gimp ToolKit (GTK).

       This man page explains how to use the client.
