Title: Nessus Testing

Hello everyone….

I'm new to using nessus, and just have a couple of quick questions.

First, if I "enable all" the plugins, does nessus attack every vulnerability listed here?

http://cgi.nessus.org/plugins/dump.php3

And looking through the datasheet, "There are more than 1200 nessus tests" as of version 2.0.1, if I enable all plugins, how many tests does it generate?  What about if I only enable the safe plugins?

Basically, I'm in need of an exact count, so I can begin determining what some different IDSes are and are not seeing. 

I appreciate any info!

Thanks!
