I use the words unstabilities since I can obtain nikto results from other
clients such as NessWX and NessusClients(Boss) but this is not
stable.Inother words I sometimes obtain results sometimes not although
conditions are
same. This is also true for NessJ clients when I choose nikto and also other
plugins.
I choose nikto plugin and also related two preferences Enable Nikto test
and Force Full(generic) scan.
When I look at the nessus.messages logs , I see that in every case ,whether
I obtain result or not, nikto.nasl plugin is launched.But the messages which
show the time of jobs different.So I try to use different timeout values but
I could not solve the my problem.
Thank you for your attention.
