Hi folks,

I am confused! I was told that Nessus makes use of Nikto (if it is 
installed) so I had a quick look at its man page. To my surprise, nikto 
makes essentially the same type of checks that Nessus does. So you can 
probably guess my question: Why do we need both tools and not just 
Nessus? If their features are overlapping, wouldn't it make sense to 
combine them into one product?

Michael
