Hi,

And thanks for a swift answer.

I think I may have found the answer. When feeding the targetnames to nessus from a targetfile, I have constructed a file consisting of eight hosts per line, all followed by a comma (for readability reasons). Nessus apparently reads the file just fine, but I noticed some double commas, ",,", in the "Target(s):" line. All hosts immediately following ",," are not being tested. It seems that only the first 80 characters in each line in the targefile is significant. Is my targetfile badly built or is this a bug in nessus ?
