Hi Ron, I just checked scan.log.

Note the "remote host is dead". I know as a fact that it is not, and I used to scan this host just fine with the previous version of Nessus. I just scanned other hosts, and get the same "remote host is dead" response. My firewall and antivirus are off. When on, they don't affect local network scans. The host is a Linux server. No idea why "dont_scan_printers.nasl" is being launched. I believe the previous Nessus version I was using was 3.0.6.

Have you looked at the event log for any error or warning messages? What previous version of Nessus were you using?
