If you mean my firewall allows it, then yes -- both for loopback and remote access. Below are the results of ipchains check: [root]# ipchains -C input -i lo -p tcp -s localhost 32654 -d localhost 1241 accepted [root]# ipchains -C input -i eth0 -p tcp -s <any public IP> <unprivport> -d <our IP> 1241 accepted I eliminated any firewall problem by stopping ipchains, but the ff. SSL error still arose: [root]# nessus -q localhost 1241 <user> <pass> <targets file> <results file> SSL_connect[11402]: error:00000000:lib(0):func(0):reason(0) nessus : SSL error Also, an "lsof | grep nessusd" run confirmed that nessusd is indeed listening on port 1241, and that it's using "/lib/libssl.so.0.9.6b". I have the developer package of openssl installed. My nessusd.conf points to the correct directories of the .pem files. I'm stumped. Is there anything else to be done with the servercert.pem and cacert.pem files found in the server's /var/nessus/CA and /usr/com/nessus/CA? I've also tried adding "ssl = none" in both nessusd.conf and /home/<user>/.nessusrc, to no avail. Thanks for responding, and really hope you have an idea how to solve my problem.
