Hello,

Is there any way of capturing Nessus' scan results to MySQL while the
scan is in progress? I'm aware that the results can be saved to external
files and then fed to the database. I actually have a simple parser that
does just that. However, I need to be able to do it with scans in
progress without having to wait for the scan to finish.

If this requires digging into Nessus' source code, where is the right
place to start. I looked at nsr_output.c but doesn't seem like the place
to start. 

The information I'm looking to capture are: 
        1) user who initiated the scan; 
        2) host the user connected from; 
        3) target specification provided; 
        4) results of the scan,i.e., port, protocol and plugin that
successfully exploited the port. 

Additionally, I'd also be interested in capturing results of the nmap
scan that nessus performs. In particular, with the -A and -O options
turned on so the target OS and software version can be captured. 

Thanks for any help.
