logic dictates that I am missing the tar file, but this installation with the same nessus-installer.sh file worked fine on Red Hat v 7.1.  What am I missing?? 

nessus_install.sh assumes that md5sum (and a few other things) are already installed and doesn't verify before running - I had it crap out on me on a rh8 install a few weeks ago but I foolishly didn't note down what utility was missing. You might see that behavior if md5sum isn't there.

rpm -qf `which md5sum` yields textutils-2.0.14-2 for me so try keying in 'rpm -qa | grep textutil' and see if that's installed on your system. If it's not you can just enter 'up2date textutils' if you've registered that box for updates.
