You already have a URL that you use to manually grab the plugins, right? It should look like: https://plugins.nessus.org/get.php?l=XXXX&p=YYYY&f=all-2.0.tar.gz where "XXXX" is your login and "YYYY" is your password. To configure nessus-fetch, create / edit the file nessus-fetch.rc file, by default in /usr/local/etc/nessus, so it contains the following lines: ---- snip, snip, snip ---- login=XXXX password=YYYY proxy= proxy_port= proxy_username= proxy_password= ---- snip, snip, snip ---- After you've done that, re-run "nessus-fetch --check" - it should report now that you're registered for a direct feed. (NB: nessus-fetch --check doesn't distinguish between registered and direct feeds, only whether it's been registered or not.)
