no, the scanner needs to restart before the --rebuild BTW, the right way to execute the service scripts actually is: service openvas-scanner restart And it all depends on which OpenVAS version you are using. In OpenVAS-7 it is even sufficient to send a HUP to the scanner and then to the manager. The old method will work also of course. -- 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] https://lists.wald.intevation.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openvas-discuss
