I have been running "openvas-nvt-sync" on a daily basis, until I 
recognized that updates are provided once a week on wednesday morning. I 
have to state there have been additional updates in exception when a 
critical vulnerability has been identified. I can recall that happening 
once which was as far as I remember related to Heartbleed, but I may be 
wrong on that.
