Do you know you left out "settings"? It shouldn't lead to the problem
you're having and they'll be enabled regardless, but you may wish to
include it anyway.

I'm the author of update-nessusrc.  In what way(s) does this not work?
Which version of Nessus are you using? Judging by the message above, it
appears update-nessusrc isn't really updating your configuration file. 
Is it?

If not, did you edit update-nessusrc so it uses port 3001 rather than
1241 when communicating with your server? Does running update-nessusrc
with the '-d' option offer any clues about why it fails? Which versions
of perl and update-nessusrc do you have?

If yes, what does 'egrep "[0-9]{5} = no" /root/.nessusrc' produce? Given 
that you left out "settings", I'd expect to see:

 11122 = no
 10917 = no
 11038 = no
 10889 = no
 10870 = no
 10890 = no

Anything else?
