Haven't tested it yet, but I did find a smoking gun for a lockup issue I noted earlier - something that would be great to have a fix for in the new version. While scanning four machines, nessus wedged up, with four nessusd threads stuck in a tight run loop, strace showing only "BRK(xxx)" every second or so, and the default plugin timeout not being honored. Thanks to Michel's run_plug.pl, I discovered all four nessusd's were running check_ports.nasl. So I wonder if i = i + 1 port = scanner_get_port(i) is not getting itself into an infinite loop somehow. This lockup only appears periodically, so perhaps it does depend upon which ports were or were not found open/closed when rescanned???
