Hello everyone, For 10 years now, the Nessus user base has been supported with the use of mailing lists as a medium to communicate with the community. To date, they served their purpose but I've been looking for a more modern way to for the community to communicate.
So, we've decided to upgrade the mailing lists to a web-based forum, which is available at: https://discussions.nessus.org/ The benefit of the interface we selected is that email aficionados can still configure it to get email notifications, but you can also use RSS to keep track of the new messages, and basically each user can configure it to its liking. Note that we're doing a fresh start, so you will need to register on the portal to create yourself an account. Some forums can be browsed without having an account, but you need an account to post a message. Here are the initial new forums we have created (we're always interested in feedback regarding other forums you think would be helpful): - Nessus: Scanning Forum: this forum's topic covers everything from installing your scanner to getting it to perform a full scan - Nessus: Reports Forum: this forum's topic covers the next steps after a scan: you'd go there to get information about the contents of a report (ie: how to resolve a given flaw or misconfiguration), how to handle large reports, etc... - Nessus : Advanced Forum: this forum is about everything "advanced" regarding Nessus -- plugin writing, complex rules files, etc... In addition to this, Tenable ProfessionalFeed and Enterprise product customers who create an account with the same email address as they use for the Customer Support portal will get automatic access to forums dedicated to what they purchased -- ProfessionalFeed, Security Center, our Log Correlation Engine, our Passive Vulnerability Scanner, etc... While we'll keep the Nessus mailing lists archives online, we'll plan to phase out the mailing lists over time. On February 16th, we'll disable all the Nessus lists (except the low volume nessus-announce@). Once again, the discussion portal is at : https://discussions.nessus.org/ Thanks and have a great week, -- Renaud _______________________________________________ Nessus mailing list Nessus@list.nessus.org http://mail.nessus.org/mailman/listinfo/nessus
