I found that the latest libcap package from sunfreeware didn't include the nessus library. I ended up taking the boring route and using the precompiled packaged from said source.
Thanks for the ideas.

By default, nessus-libaries uses an older version of libpcap, which it calls libpcap-nessus. Unless you explicitly disable it by passing the argument "--enable-nessuspcap=no" to configure, it will be installed and used. > ld: fatal: library -lpcap-nessus: not found > > ld: fatal: File processing errors. No output written to > .libs/libnasl.so.2.0.10 nessus-config thinks that you're using libpcap-nessus but the loader can't find it. Does it exist in /usr/local/lib? If so, does Sun have the equivalent of Linux's ldconfig that you can run to update run-time bindings for the dynamic linker?
