Re: [Openvas-discuss] Restrict cpu util.
Unix/Linux does not allow that kind of CPU utilization control, unless you're talking about some big iron. The best you can do is limit the amount of thrashing your processor may do be controlling the number of scans, and the number of hosts per scan, and number of tests per host, that you are running in parallel.

Re: [Openvas-discuss] Error in host specification when creating a Target with larger than /24
/24 is the largest net you can use for target. You will have to split up anything larger into /24 subnets. Since a /14 will be end up being quite a few /24 nets you may want to look at the OMP protocol http://www.openvas.org/omp-5-0.html#command_create_target and create the targets and tasks via script instead of typing them in manually.

Why?! This is on CentOS 6, with current packages.
