Thankyou, that is it, interface "lo" was not configured out of the box. Odd, don't recall having to do this manually in the past.
Running : "ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.255" solved the problem. Nessus now can start on localhost.

It looked like:
lo        Link encap:Local Loopback
          LOOPBACK  MTU:16436  Metric:1

And it should look like:
lo        Link encap:Local Loopback
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.255.255.255
          inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING  MTU:16436  Metric:1

Strange. What does "ifconfig -a" says?
