I'm using a sh script to run nessus client (on gnu/linux). Running it
interactively and than killing with control-c cancels the scan. I'd like to
run it from cron or another script and be able to cancel the scan. Saving the
scripts pid and killing it does not cancel the scan (forked server processes
keep running). What is the proper way to do this?
I'm not sure if there's a "proper" way to do this, but one approach is
to grab the pid from nessusd.messages as the scan is launched and then
kill it when you decide it's time.
