I use Knoppix regularly on my home PC to check my work's external environment from home.  I use several Knoppix related LiveCD versions of Linux such as PHLAK, Knoppix-STD and Auditor's Toolkit. 
 
My question is this: Is there a way to register Nessus for the plugins and save that registration file off to a USB or some other device.  When using the Live CD, each time I boot it appears to www.nessus.org that I have a brand new installation of Nessus.  I have written scripts to automate the nessus-mkcert and nessus-adduser components, but with the new registration model I cannot reuse the registration number as nessus.org sees that key as already being used, which leads me to pointlessly re-register to get a new key every time I want to perform a scan.
 
So post-registration, is there a configuration file I could copy off somewhere and copy back each time I start Nessus again, so that nessus.org would see my valid registration?
 
I would appreciate any advice.
 
Thanks,
