Hmm...is "Client -> Prefs. -> Ping Host -> Mark unrechable Hosts as dead" unchecked? If yes, please set "log_whole_attack = yes" in openvassd.conf. Restart the openvas-scanner. Start a scan against 192.168.0.1. Wait that the message "The remote host (192.168.0.1) is dead" appears. What plugins have been executed before this message?
