What do you have in /usr/local/var/nessus/users/xavier/auth/ ?
In Nessus 1.2.2, the password is stored as a (salted) MD5 hash if
md5sum or openssl is installed somewhere.
I think that what you're experiencing is that nessus-adduser uses the
MD5 hash, whereas nessusd does not, as your nessusd is not linked
against openssl (bad thing, by the way).
Try to do the following :
echo "yourpassword" > /usr/local/var/nessus/users/xaviers/auth/password
And try to log in again.
