I finally gave up using external nessus server and installed nessus on the
same PF box and it worked perfectly fine. The only other difference is that
the external nessus server is V4.4 and the new one I installed is V5.2.
Do we have to make any changes for the Packetfence to work with external
nessus server- its scheduling the scan and on the external server and
deleting those reports after the scan is completed as specified in
nessus.pmbut not parsing the report?
