OpenVAS-discuss, Sharing some experience just because.
I just now upgraded my platform to OpenVAS9 from 8 and feared issues with my slave scanners because I saw a lot of messages and posts about the OpenVAS9 slaves using sockets instead of a TCP listener. I didn't want to stunnel my way from sockets to IP and such. Turns out, my setup was different from the get-go! My slaves use a full OpenVAS installation (libraries, manager and scanner). The master communicates with the slaves using OMP. This works just fine over TCP with OpenVAS9 through port 9390 with SSL and credentials. In OpenVAS9 I see 3 options for a "Scanner": - OMP Slave - OpenVAS Scanner - OSP Scanner I use the OMP Slave one. If anyone has any questions regarding this, let me know.
