I'm having trouble generating my nessus server certificate..
When I execute nessus-mkcert I'm asked all the right questions, to which I
provide valid
answers, however when I finish it reports that "An error occured while
generating the cert and/or key. Do you want to save openssl output in a
file?" --to which I answer 'yes'. I first saw this problem while
installing nessus 1.2.4.
I upgraded my openssl to rev 'g' and encountered the same
problem.. Then I tried downgrading to nessus 1.2.3.. no luck. Below is the
output from the openssl error file. Does anybody have any thoughts?
Thanks!

You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated
into your certificate request.
What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN.
There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank
"For some fields there will be a default value,"
"If you enter '.', the field will be left blank."
