The command you should be running is "nessus-mkcert-client" -- note the
lack of a space character.  It's a shell script that should be installed
in PREFIX/bin.

Did you create a server cert first using nessus-mkcert (in PREFIX/sbin)?
If yes, what does the daemon configuration file have for ssl_version?
And have you restarted the daemon after creating the server cert?

By the way, you need to do this before creating the client cert. 

You may want to read README_SSL in the nessus-core source tree.
