Hi,

good point. I tried it out and discovered that nmap doesn't find the open port when given the -f command line switch. Then went into my configuration file and en-/disabled couple of nmap options (only fragmentation in the first place of course) and.... nope. Nessus still can't find the port open. Then even used the Nessus internal SYN scan but it still can't find the port open. Actually could this be a bug? Because this started hapening when I updated to 2.2.4.

with no change in behaviour.

Looking at the config in your original post, I see you're calling
nmap.nasl and telling it to fragment packets; ie,

 Nmap (NASL wrapper)[checkbox]:Fragment IP packets (bypasses firewalls)
= yes

yet you don't use the "-f" option when running nmap from a commandline.
If you disable that option, does Nessus then find the port open?
