Back Orifice is a Windows app. Is the target / router really running Windows? > I then was going to follow up with > a nessus scan on the same host.

What > would make nessus not scan the host? You haven't provided any details of how the scan was configured or any log messages from nessusd.messages, but I'd guess Nessus failed to detect the target as alive. Check how you've configured the scanners; eg, port ranges, type of scan, etc. For example, if you know tcp port 31337 is open, make sure your port ranges include that.
