Taking some bits out of the nessus-update-plugins script (ain't open
source great?):
# TODO: override the prefix if necessary.
prefix=/usr/local
libdir=$prefix/lib
pluginsdir=$libdir/nessus/plugins
# TODO: untar the plugins tarball & cd to its plugins dir
cp -p *.nasl *.inc $pluginsdir/
chown 0:0 $pluginsdir/*.nasl
chown 0:0 $pluginsdir/*.inc
# HUP nessusd
test -f $prefix/var/nessus/nessusd.pid && {
kill -1 `cat $prefix/var/nessus/nessusd.pid`
}
