Yes, while 30 mins is a bit long, let it sit a bit longer. I don't have much experience with the Ubuntu packages however.
Also, don't stop them halfway through with Ctrl+c, I am not sure what kind of state that leaves openvasmd in. If you have done that, probably should reinstall and try again. --rebuild will completely rebuild the openvasmd database. --update simply takes the difference between what openvas-nvt-sync et al have added and updates the sqlite DB to include the new data. You probably do not need to run --rebuild. On Thu, Jul 30, 2015 at 9:11 AM, Arthur <calvin...@gmail.com> wrote: > Haha good question ; around 30 minutes ?
