There is no requirement that the client configuration file be called .nessusrc, although you will need to invoke nessus using the option --config-file. > This would allow anyone to test his server (I > configure nessus and one just scans without caring > about plugins or nmap options) One thing to keep in mind is that Nessus will automatically enable any plugins not listed in your configuration file (or any non DoS plugins if safe_checks is true). This might be a problem, for example, if you periodically run nessus-update-plugins. My update-nessusrc script will help you avoid problems because of this; see <http://www.tifaware.com/perl/update-nessusrc/> for info. George -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
