I must have misconfigured something with nessus (compiled). When I use
nmap v3.00 (compiled), I can find opened ports. If I do a scan with Nessus
on the same target, I get no status or results. Am I missing something?

What I get bit by on a regular basis is Nessus not scanning a host because it thinks its dead... because it uses only a very small set of ports to decide if a host is live or not. You can either expand the set of ports it uses to make this decision or tell it not to ignore dead hosts.
