I'm running a RedHat box. Uninstalled old version of nessus,leaving configurations behind, and used the "CSV method" as per the www page to pull down the latest code. (first time I've used this, but it seemed to go well).
Trying to do the "./configure, make, make install" steps I proceed ok until nessus-core - where I think things fail. I've included the output of that step in the hope that someone's able to point me in the right direction. To be honest, I find it very difficult to distinguish between, information/progress, warning and error messages during these processes, but it does look as if I have an error here - but why?: -----------------------snip from the "make" log-------- gcc -g -O2 `sh ./cflags` -c rasort.c gcc -g -O2 `sh ./cflags` -c nessusd.c gcc -g -O2 `sh ./cflags` -c save_tests.c gcc -g -O2 `sh ./cflags` -c save_kb.c gcc -g -O2 `sh ./cflags` -c detached.c gcc -g -O2 `sh ./cflags` -c rtree.c gcc -g -O2 `sh ./cflags` -c pluginlaunch.c pluginlaunch.c: In function `update_running_processes': pluginlaunch.c:194: warning: unused variable `preferences' gcc -g -O2 `sh ./cflags` -c locks.c gcc -g -O2 `sh ./cflags` -c dirutils.c gcc -g -O2 `sh ./cflags` -c md5.c gcc -g -O2 `sh ./cflags` -c plugs_hash.c gcc -g -O2 `sh ./cflags` -c pluginupload.c gcc `sh ./cflags` auth.o attack.o comm.o log.o rules.o sighand.o threads.o users.o utils.o ntp_10.o ntp_11.o parser.o preferences.o piic.o pluginload.o plugs_deps.o nasl_plugins.o nes_plugins.o perl_plugins.o plugs_req.o rasort.o nessusd.o save_tests.o save_kb.o detached.o rtree.o pluginlaunch.o locks.o dirutils.o md5.o plugs_hash.o pluginupload.o -o nessusd `/usr/local/bin/nasl-config --libs` `/usr/local/bin/nessus-config --libs` -ldl /usr/local/lib/libnasl.so: undefined reference to `release_bpf' /usr/local/lib/libnasl.so: undefined reference to `wait_for_free_bpf' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [nessusd] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/nessus-core/nessusd' make: *** [server] Error 2 [root@glamdring nessus-core]# --------------------end of the snip------------------- PS: Yes, I do know that I shouldn't really be 'make'ing while logged in as root... - steve ========================================================= http://www.commarc.co.nz (This e-mail has been scanned by MailMarshal) - [EMAIL PROTECTED]: general discussions about Nessus. * To unsubscribe, send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe nessus" in the body.
