One of the side effects that OpenVAS gains more attention==Feed Syncs ;-) Sometimes interruped syncs hang for a while and we have a maximum of connections. Should be OK again in a few minutes. The situation will get much better if the openvas-nvt-sync would use the http://www.openvas.org/openvas-nvt-feed-current.tar.bz2 for initial syncs (ie. when only the .nes plugins are present in the local plugins directory). This would take away most of the current load from our rsync service. Anyone volunteer to improve the sync script? :-) Best Jan -- Dr. Jan-Oliver Wagner | ++49-541-335084-0 | http://www.greenbone.net/ Greenbone Networks GmbH, Neuer Graben 17, 49074 Osnabrück | AG Osnabrück, HR B 202460 Geschäftsführer: Lukas Grunwald, Dr. Jan-Oliver Wagner _______________________________________________ Openvas-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.wald.intevation.org/mailman/listinfo/openvas-discuss
