I do this by modifying the relevant portion of the .nasl script (usually desc[]). The changes will show up in the report regardless of the format (html, text, etc.) I also modify the severity level of the report by changing the report type: security_hole, security_warning, security_note.
Be sure to save copies of the modified files, though, since nessus-update-plugins will overwrite any of your changes... something like: nessus-update-plugins cp mynasl/*.nasl /usr/local/lib/nessus/plugins/ kill -HUP `cat /usr/local/var/nessus/nessusd.pid` -----Original Message----- From: Billy Dunn [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, August 11, 2002 11:56 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Report text Could anyone tell me how to alter the report text? I would like to modify some of these to indicate previous patterns I've seen and detail internal steps for resolution. Can this be done easily? - [EMAIL PROTECTED]: general discussions about Nessus. * To unsubscribe, send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe nessus" in the body. - [EMAIL PROTECTED]: general discussions about Nessus. * To unsubscribe, send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe nessus" in the body.
