Hosts per line has always worked for me. I usually run fping against the range (i.e . 192.168.0.0/24) and direct the output to a flat file and use that flat file as my target list.

Cc: Nessus nessus Subject: Re: Targets file I've always done one host per line or comma separated (I forget which). IIRC, I think CIDR is supposed to work, but I had some issues last time I tried it.

What I recall is that it is one host per line, is that correct? Does it allow ranges? E.g., 192.168.0.1-20? How about CIDR? 192.168.0.0/28<http://192.168.0.0/28>? I didn't see this documented in the NessusClient_3.2_User_Guide.pdf and nothing else looked relevant.
