I too am having trouble with nessus-update-plugins failing, running
version 2.2.6 of Nessus. I've got it running from cron once a day at

the
last few weeks - on Sunday 9th if that makes any difference. I've
turned on the -vv option to try and get more detail, but it doesn't
help
much.
Sometimes it fails at this stage:
+ /usr/local/bin/nessus-fetch --plugins-md5
More often at this stage:
+ /usr/local/bin/nessus-fetch --plugins

It looks like you can't connect to plugins.nessus.org -- do you have
a firewall in place blocking its access ? (Note that
plugins.nessus.org has changed IP addresses a few weeks ago, so if
you have strict, IP-based firewall-rules, then you need to update them).
