Hi All,

I had made available yet another Nessus plugins update script.
This script can be downloaded from the following URL:
http://www.inprotect.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=Downloads&file=index&req=getit&lid=8

This is a Perl script, which will run nessus-update-plugins, execute
Nessus to dump plugins info into the database and will keep Nessus plugins
info in the separate table marking plugins with creation, update and
deletion date/time.

This script is not yet optimized, but should give you the benefits of
having plugins info in the database and should also provide info on
compiled Nessus plugins (*.nes).


You'll need to create MySQL database and create the following table:

CREATE TABLE nessus_plugins (
  id int(11) NOT NULL default '0',
  enabled char(1) NOT NULL default 'Y',
  version varchar(255) default NULL,
  created varchar(14) default NULL,
  modified varchar(14) default NULL,
  deleted varchar(14) default NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY  (id)
) TYPE=MyISAM;


Comments and bug reports are welcome,
