The Nessus Client 3 scanner is a completely new application and has nothing to do with the older Nessus clients which had different functionality and portability across Windows and UNIX. With the new client we focused on a unified reporting format and making sure the same features were available across all platforms. The current Nessus Client 3.0 User Guide does not have support for the new Nessus Client yet and will be updated shortly. > I have no problems running scans off my Fedora 6 box, it is the client > and reporting that so not seem to be complete. I'm sorry you don't think it is complete. One of the issues with the older clients is they all had different ways to export reports and manage scan configurations. With the Nessus Client, there is now a common ".nessus" report format which has been extensively documented. By having the same format available to all Nessus users, it will be much easier for users to write new reporting and analysis tools for Nessus.
