Yes it will work. I have used it in vmware for a couple of years now
with no problems. However I have only scanned about 200 hosts with
all but the DOS plugins enabled. The performance seemed to be fine I
didn't notice a difference between running it natively or running it
in a vmware instance. However it may depend on how much processing
power you have available on your system.

I'm in the process of setting up a new scanning server. The base OS
is Suse 10.1 running VMware server. I have created a Backtrack 2.0
virtual machine and loaded nessus 3.0.4.
Is anyone on this list running nessus in a virtual machine? I ask
because when nessusd loads it gives a warning message saying
performance is abysmal running in vmware. Will this work or not?
