Hello,
I would like to ask you about plugins dependencies. I just created a
Nessus rc file with a couple of rules activated (say 258) in the PLUGIN
section:
begin(PLUGIN_SET)
<ruleId1> = yes
<ruleId1> = yes
...
<ruleId258> = yes
end(PLUGIN_SET)
for the rest of the plugins I just didn’t set anything. I also set:
auto_enable_dependencies = yes
silent_dependencies = yes
in the SERVER_PREFS section.
When I run Nessus I found that it changes the file adding lots of rules
(10K+). The question is, all that 10K+ rules are needed by dependencies?
do Nessus uses a default configuration (enable/disable) for plugins that
are not explicitly enabled?
What configuration should I use to make Nessus run all the test I want
(those 258) and all necessary dependencies but not any other plugin?
BTW, I could not find information about silent_dependencies option,
what's exactly for?
Thank you.
Regards,
