Hi Robin, I have also been testing the "Nessus bridge for Metasploit" and it looks like you do need a nessus server to connect back too and run the various scans through.
I would however point you to Zate in the metasploit chat room or sometimes in the PDC IRC, he is still activity developing this plugin and might have some undocumented tricks he is willing to share. Let us know what you fine cause this can be very useful. ------Original Message------ From: Robin Wood Sender: [email protected] To: PaulDotCom Mailing List To: Metasploit List ReplyTo: PaulDotCom Security Weekly Mailing List Subject: [Pauldotcom] nessus scanning through a metasploit tunnel Sent: Oct 19, 2010 11:41 AM I've been playing with running Nessus scans through Metasploit and got it working fine but I then tried to run it through a route set up through a Meterpreter tunnel but it didn't work. I assume that this is because all Metasploit is doing is just accessing Nessus through its API and it isn't actually integrating with Nessus. Is there any way now we have the Nessus integration to get it to scan through the a Meterpreter tunnel? I know that it can be done through an SSH tunnel being installed on the target machine but it would be nice to be able to run it directly through Metasploit routing.
