I can state that we have the same problem here. Legacy systems, along with a surprising number of current systems, like Solaris 6 +, all have problems. Slowaris NFS loses it's mind under a normal scan. When the NFS server dies, the 500+ clients here all hang, and then the community is looking to hang ME! > Lastly, how do you use nessus in such an environment, if at all? You schedule the scans, so people know when they will have problems.
