-i and -o : Report conversion. Exemple :
nessus -i <in.[nsr|nbe]> -o out.[html|xml|nsr|nbe]
-x : Overrides the SSL "paranoia" question (and prevents nessus from checking
the SSL cert of the server. Bad thing, except in some situation where
you don't have a .nessusrc. Do not use against the internet or untrusted
local networks). To be used with -q (quiet mode)
-p : obtains the list of the plugins installed on the server. To be used
with -q. Exemple :
nessus -qp localhost 1241 renaud foo
-P : obtains the list of preferences of the server, as well as plugins
preferences (was broken in nessus 1.2.0 and 1.2.1, repaired in 1.2.2).
To be used with -q, as for -p
-S : issue SQL output for -p and -P (not implemented yet actually)
And I think that's all.
