Kelly, I too am trying to get the nessus client working on osx.  In my
case though, I also installed the daemon.  The daemon is working
properly, as I was able to test in from my XP workstation.  The nessus
client on my OSX machine is throwing a bunch of gtk errors, then
popping up a non-functional GUI.  I am using the latest gtk
(gtk-osx-0.7-binary.dmg).  I didn't manually compile nessus, I used
the install script.  In my search, I did see more than one note on
installing only the client, but in my search just now I came up blank.
 If you get it working, please reply with what you did.

Thx,  Matt

These are the sites that I used to install:
http://homepage.mac.com/duling/halfdozen/Nessus-Howto.html
http://deepquest.code511.com/main.html

Here's what I get when I run nessus:
me$ nessus
