Regarding the Sept post on blog.tenable.com regarding nessus calling and executing "nikto" it states:
"Finally, nikto.nasl is disabled by default in the scan policy. To change this under NessusClient3 for example, edit the policy and click on the 'Advanced' tab. In the drop down menu, select "Nikto (NASL wrapper)" and change "Enable Nikto" from 'no' to 'yes'." After following the configuration on a redhat es4 server i am able to complete the following: call nikto.pl from any directory display the nikto.nasl (14260) under the plugins tab, as well see it in the plugin lib But referring to the quote above i don't have this option available under any of my policies. This is true for any connecting clients. I have Nessus Client for windows v3.2.1 (build 2G299_Q) as well a X-window redirecting my server's NessusClient v3.2.1 (build 2G295_Q). Neither have this option available. I'm running the latest nessus server. Am i missing something? ashby
