I'll bite.
Your requirements were a little vague, but this should work fine. Note
that the target IPs you want to scan should go in /tmp/targets (assuming
you aren't purging stale /tmp files regularly -- in that case, put it
somewhere else and fix the TARGETS variable). Obviously you'll also need
to set all these variables accordingly.
All - if I'm doing something incorrectly please don't hesitate to point
it out.

Hello
Can anyone help me create a script which does a Nessus Scan and then
emails the results.
I am hoping to run this script via cron on RHEL 4 and/or RHEL 5
