I didn't tell it where to go, I just ./configure'd made and made installed in the order it instructed. Something of note was after I edited the ld.so.conf file, I saved it, then ran ldconfig, and it ran fine. Then I configured the first tar, which was Nessus-libraries. After I did that, I got the message at the end about adding /usr/local/bin in my PATH (not /usr/local/lib) which I thought was weird. But then is when I stopped install and asked my office mate to help me add that to my path, which we did, then I continued on installing the packages in order.
At first I thought my GTK wasn't installed, but I can run Nessus, I get the window and stuff, but can't log in obviously, cause when I try to make the cert, is when I get into trouble, and I need to do that first
how to I do that ldd? do I type it exactly as you have
ldd 'which nessusd'
when I do that, I've gotten "./which nessusd: no such file or directory" or ./which no such file or directory
or ./nessusd no such file
I'm going to try and install them again. Thanks so much for your help. I'm sure its something small.

I downloaded and compiled the core source files (I installed the sharutils but the install.sh didn't work for me). I extracted and configured, made and made installed in the instructed order. I didn't receive any errors, everything seemed to go well.
I then edited my ld.so.conf file in a text editor, I left everything in there and added the line as instructed, so it looks like this
/usr/X11R6/lib /usr/lib/sane /usr/lib/qt-3.1/lib /usr/local/lib
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# nessus-mkcert nessusd: error while loading shared libraries: libnasl.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Executing nessusd failed. Make sure your library loader is configured properly and that nessusd is in your $PATH
Did you build and install libnasl into the ld.so.conf paths? Try ldd `which nessusd`
I checked the FAQ and saw no similar questions with my error. I have Fedora Core 1 running root in KDE
There are rpms for FC1 and other Red Hat Linux variants at http://atrpms.physik.fu-berlin.de/name/nessus/.
BTW don't log in as root (as your primatry login), log in as a normal user and us su/sudo to switch to root only when neccessary (installation/configuration). After creating a nessusd user, you can use nessus w/o switching to root.
