It's well beyond my experience and they /are/ the experts :) --- Original Message --- From:"Mark Frost" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent:Thu 2/22/07 6:02 pm To:"[email protected]" <[email protected]> Cc: Subj:Nessusd Segfaults I had written some scripts to automate my nessus usage, and I began to notice terrible segfault issues. The warnings began to appear roundabout the time 3.0.2 came out, but I believe it was happening beforehand, it just wasnt being verbose about it. I have always noticed Nessus seems to not always scan some of the hosts I tell it to, and it seems as though this is related. I am now using Nessus 3.0.5, and the problem persists. Anyway, the visible output I get looks something like this: > *** The daemon shut down the communication > Connection closed by the server (SIGPIPE caught) > send: Broken pipe > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send: Success > send : Success Various things about that seem strange to me. I dont understand why the first one is a broken pipe, whereas the rest arent, and I DEFINITELY dont understand why that last send has an extra space before the colon (this is consistent. Every time this error occurs, the last send message is formatted in that way. After a great deal of extra debugging, I eliminated consistency. It didnt always hap _______________________________________________ Nessus mailing list [email protected] http://mail.nessus.org/mailman/listinfo/nessus
