I have watched the video about setting up - /gos-3.1

I have some pretty basic questions ...

I am based in London, UK using a pc running windows 10 and I use
a dedicated linux server in the US which runs CentOS Linux 6.9

I would like to check the vulnerability of this US server and also
check vulnerabilities of other servers for my clients.

I am new to this and I am not sure what I am doing !!

Obviously I can login to my own server which is running WebMin and
VirtualMin so I don't need to use Putty. ( Although I can follow your
instructions on the video ) I can just use the command shell

However - if I want to check the vulnerability of a clients server do I
need there root login details ?

That can't be right ?

I think I am missing something ... am I supposed to set up the OpenVAS on
my linux server ( the one in the US ) ? Is that for checking only itself or
for checking client IPs ?

Why do I need to install it on my server - if there is an online login on
the GreenBone.net site ?

Do I need to install the OPENVAS under a virtual server and then run it
from a url address ?

I am someone can give me some guidance.
Many thanks.
Dave
