Subject: Running nessus from cron is failing
Hi all I wonder if someone might be able to help be out here. I am trying
to run a scheduled nightly scan from cron on a solaris machine.
My cron entry calls a script, at 10pm, the contents of the script are
as follows:
<----nessus-scan.sh------>
#!/bin/sh
# run scan
/usr/local/bin/nessus -c ~nessusrc -T html -qx <SERVER> 1241 <LOGON>
<PASSWORD> <TARGETS> <RESULTS>
<----nessus-scan.sh------>
Now my problems is, despite having run the script by hand and saving
the cert, each time cron tries to run the script it gets prompted to
save the servers cert. Can anyone recommend a way around this. The server
doesnt have "yes" so I can't pipe it to that, is there any where I can
copy an already saved cert to prevent geting prompted in future?
Many thanks
