On the machine where it's failing:
o Is nmap even installed?
o Does your scan make use of the nmap_wrapper plugin?
o Does the nmap_wrapper plugin run? Successfully? Check the
nessus logs.
o Is nmap available in the same PATH used when starting the Nessus
daemon? If not, the daemon will not attempt to run the
nmap_wrapper plugin.
o What are the permissions on nmap and as what uid does the Nessus
daemon run?
