Erik, Thank you for response. Unfortunately, yes it is. Some of the items I need help with include: What is the latest version of NMAP to be supported by Nessus? Based upon the CVS I think it might be 3.45 (which I should give a try I suppose). Based upon the CVS there was a change to the compiling of the plug-in for NMAP "nmap_installed now replaced by search for nmap at runtime". Any idea how I can log what is happening at runtime?

Just a wild guess, but is the nmap executable in the PATH?
