Hi all, This could have been posted before, but I have not been able to follow all the posts.
This is my current setup: # /opt/nessus/bin/nessus -v nessus (Nessus) 3.2.0 for Linux (C) 1998 - 2008 Tenable Network Security, Inc. SSL used for client - server communication Running the command: # /opt/nessus/bin/nessus -q localhost 1241 user password /targets.txt -T "html_graph" . I get the following response: 'html_graph' is not a valid report type It works 100% with the switch -T "html" I make use of the back-end as Nessus is installed on Linux with no X or GUI: And the server is behind a firewall at the branch, with no option to open the ports CentOS release 4.3 (Final) Linux 2.6.9-34.EL But on the flip side, I manage to connect to the Nessus server from my Linux desktop via a tunnel: ssh -L 2482:<Nessus IP>:1241 root@<firewall IP> I did try it, then connecting from my client to localhost on port 1241, it does the scan, as I can see the processes running on the Nessus server. But, the report does not look remotely the same as the back-end scan. For example, with the client scan via the tunnel, one machine will show maybe 2 or 3 warnings. The report from the back-end scan will show maybe 10 warnings for that same machine as well as critical problems. Questions are, can the back-end scan support "html_graph" ? Can a client scan via a tunnel be effective with true results? Or is there something wrong with my tunnel or setup?
