Hi

I also have master/slave setup, with the master running Postgres and the
slave running sqlite3. Seem to connect and scan as requested, the only
issue I've found over an old Openvas8 remote scanner is that the
application list and operating system values are not populated, which is
weird.

When I connect the Master gsa instance to the remote manager and login, the
NVTs etc are all populated OK, so that seems to look OK.

Anyone any ideas why I'm not getting a list of Applications or the
Operating System identified.

Nmap is installed and the scan config is one I've used previously.

Thanks

Roger
