Hi,

I'm testing Nessus against a test MySQL server.  
I started MySQL on a non-mysql port (5506) and ran Nessus against 
the server.  Nessus did not find MySQL.  I changed MySQL port back 
to 3306 and ran Nessus again.  In the security note of the report it 
stated: "Unknown service running on this port"  However, this time it 
did find the applicable MySQL security hole-- multiple MySQL flaws 
(I'm running MySQL 3.23.49 as my test server).  

Shouldn't Nessus find mysql regardless of what port it is on?
