Hi Renaud,
I removed all traces of both Nessus and Hydra from this machine -- .rc files,
data files, everything. Then I reinstalled each -- Hydra first, then Nessus 3
into the same locations as before ('/usr/local/bin/hydra' and '/opt/nessus').
All of the Hydra plugins now appear in the plugin list :-)
It's not clear to me what happened, so I must assume "pilot error" on my part.
However, I'm certain that both Nessus and Hydra were in their recommended
locations, as well as in my path when I started 'nessusd -D'. I did bring over
some .rc files from a 2.2.x environment, so is it possible that I tripped over a
side-effect?
Anyway, appreciate your help...
Thanks,
Thom

Are you sure hydra is in your path when you start nessusd ? (ie:
usually this is done as root).
That is, do the following :
# which hydra
# nessusd -D
If that does not work, try to following :
$ cat << EOF > test.nasl
if ( find_in_path("hydra") ) display("OK\n");
else display("Not found\n");
EOF
And run nasl -X test.nasl (as root, still). If nasl tells you that
hydra was not found, please send me the exact location hydra is
installed under, as well as the value of the $PATH variable.
