Hi,

I seem to be having a problem with nessus when it comes to running command-line scans.


I have a script set to include a large list of IP addresses in excess of 300-500.

When nessus begins the scan of these hosts, I look in nessusd.messages and

it looks as though nessus is truncating the file and only including a specific number.


Is anyone aware of a maximum number of individual hosts in a file that can be included

in a scan?


My syntax is as follows:


nessus \

--output-type=nbe \

--config-file=/usr/local/nessus/primary.May.scan1 \

--batch-mode 172.23.16.5 1241 username password \

/usr/local/apache/scan/create-main/running/cr-1528/cr-svrs-20May05-1037 \

/usr/local/apache/htdocs/states/cr/critical/cr-svrs/done/nbe/cr-svrs-20May05-1037.nbe


The file: cr-svrs-20May05-1037 is the file that contains currently 505 hosts.


Any advice that anyone can provide is greatly appreciated.


Thanks,


Chris
