I recently scanned a host that is supposed to be a router with nmap and found something on port 31337.  After doing a google search it appears that, that port os for back orifice.  I then was going to follow up with a nessus scan on the same host.  I put in the ip and the scan runs through in about 2 or 3 seconds and says no records so it would not show the results of the scan.  I believe that it did not scan the host.  What would make nessus not scan the host?  Is it trying to ping the host first and if so is there a way to disable that?  If that's not the case what could be preventing nessus from scanning the host?
 
Sincerely
Anthony
