Regards,
We run Nessus 3.2 beta (3.1.4) on Linux. To avoid FW saturation we are
feeding nmap results to Nessus. This works fine, except for some
discrepancies regarding number of hosts scanned and the number of hosts
appearing in the report. The details are as follows:
In nessusd.messages, the log entry "Targets:" correctly reports X number
of hosts. These X targets are all read from a file. When the scan
finishes, I can find Y "dead" hosts in the log. However, the report
generated lists Z hosts as "alive and responding", and Z < X-Y. How can
this be ?
