The VM from OpenVAS site is different from the Greenbone OS so i think
those programs do not exist. But, as an example, you can expose OMP to the
public by running openvasmd (manager) with the address parameter with your
public IP address. The link you provided seems to use an old version of
OpenVAS so i suggest you use the manual referenced in the www.openvas.org
site. I additionally suggest you create a virtual network with 2 OpenVAS
machines and test the scenario i described before.
