Thanks Matthew. I added -v and replaced all 127's with 128's.
Oddly, trying to add the target only produced 3 debug messages.
Here's the last 30 lines of openvasmd.log
event lsc_credential:MESSAGE:2014-09-16 22h28.42 UTC:7176: LSC Credential
8d8897ba-1aec-493c-b9eb-ba671703a36d has been created
Any help would be much appreciated!
The Manager logs (var/log/openvas/openvasmd.log) may indicate why the
CREATE_TARGET is failing. To enable logging: add -v to openvasmd, and
replace 127 with 128 in etc/openvas/openvasmd_log.conf.
