When using Nessus 3.x, either with nmap or without, it fails to
pick up all open ports on a host even if the port_range variable is
set to 1-65535. When nessus 2.x scans the same exact host, even
with the port_range variable set to default, it picks up the open
ports. The specific example we have been using for our testing is
psyBNC, but it is not currently throwing a banner. Nessus 2.x is
currently picking it up as being an unknown open port, but not
psyBNC, because it is running on a non-standard port and has no
banner (this is expected), however, Nessus 3 does not show the port
as being open at all.
Nessus 2 and Nessus 3 have the same port scanners. Which version of
Nessus 2 are you referring to ? (and which version of Nessus 3?)
