I set max_hosts = 15 and max_checks = 20 in the file nessusd.conf, and the same 
in my nessusrc file, then I started my scan according to the command :

nessus -c nessusrc -qx localhost 1241 user pwd targets result.xml

the content of my targets file is 192.168.2.2.

when I checked the nessus process number via this command : ps aux | grep 
nessus, I found that there were only 
one or two 'nessusd: testing 192.168.2.2 ...' but not 20 such processes at the 
same time.

could someone tell why? 
thanks in advance.
