Morning group, I am running RHEL 4.0, using Nessus 3.2(server) and Nessusclient 3.2.1 (client) software. Using the GUI, I can create a new scan policy "MY_MS_Patches" (scan for 2008 MS security patches). Choose a subnet to run it against and save it as: /home/mike/Nessus/Scans/winscan181_0.nessus . I then run it and in the report Tab I get a list of the vulnerable machines and their missing patches - this is good But I want to have a scan scheduled at night and have it run during off-peak hours, so I created a script.sh and entered the following commands: /opt/nessus/bin/nessus -dot-nessus /home/mike/Nessus/Scans/winscan181_0.nessus -policy 'MY_MS_Patches' localhost 1241 nessus password /home/mike/Nessus/Reports/winscan181_0.nbe -x 2>&1 > errorfile.txt The script runs, and creates the file: /home/mike/Nessus/Reports/winscan181_0.nbe but all that is displayed is the list of IPs scanned. I know that there should be "high" vulnerabilities; because when i run it from the GUI they are in the produced report. Any thoughts?
