You can choose txt, xml, etc. etc. then parse and query off of that, but
I do not believe there is a built in way to output to a text file as
such. 

Most people are taking and working with the XML file and working off
that, or importing the XML to a sql database then querying

Subject: Question about the output


Hi:

I have a question about the output of results after the scan is
completed. I'm currently saving the results as an HTML file so I can
view them from the web. Is there a way to get these results in a text
file such that: 1. If I've run scan on multiple hosts, I'd like to see
all critical alerts together. 2. And then I'd like to see the less
severe ones... together (for all the hosts) 3. And to somehow see
similar alerts from more than one host bundled into a section?

Can this be done? If not, how are most people doing this? I'm asking so
I can compile the results from Nessus into a report (word format) and
inform appropriate people of how many critical etc. alerts were seen.
For eg. 10 critical alerts found.... IP address 1 - critical alert 1 IP
address 2 - critical alert 2, 3, 4 IP address 5 - critical alert 5

etc.

thanks,
Pari Sahai
