I'm trying to setup a cron job to scan certain hosts on specific
ports (output from a previously-run nmap scan), but every option I've
tried just displays the help screen. Is it possible to do this from
the command line?
Depending on what you mean by a previously-run nmap scan, perhaps.
You'll need to use the optional nmap.nasl plugin --
http://www.nessus.org/documentation/index.php?doc=nmap-usage#nmap_plugin
-- along with nmap's greppable output format (-oG). Tweak the Nessus
client config file how you want, but make sure you have something like this:
Nmap (NASL wrapper)[file]:File containing grepable results : =
/home/theall/scans/labnet.ports
where "/home/theall/scans/labnet.ports" is the output file from nmap.
