Hello all.

I'm trying to make nessus 2.0.1 fly on Solaris 9.  So far, if I download the 
nessus-installer script and run it, I get:

bash-2.05# sh nessus-installer.sh
nessus-installer.sh: ^M: not found
nessus-installer.sh: ^M: not found
nessus-installer.sh: ^M: not found
nessus-installer.sh: ^M: not found
nessus-installer.sh: ^M: not found
nessus-installer.sh: ^M: not found
nessus-installer.sh: ^M: not found
nessus-installer.sh: ^M: not found
nessus-installer.sh: ^M: not found
nessus-installer.sh: ^M: not found
nessus-installer.sh: ^M: not found
nessus-installer.sh: ^M: not found
nessus-installer.sh: ^M: not found
nessus-installer.sh: syntax error at line 63: `in^M' unexpected

I ran it through dos2unix, hoping to clean up the script while preserving the data.  
It runs, but the error now is:

...
x -- Configuring the sources for your system
configure: warning: don't have both flex and bison; reverting to lex/yacc
...

**** An error occured :/
Do you want to save the compilation log to analyze what went wrong ? [y]

And....we're dead in the water.  Getting M4 on solaris wasn't so bad.  Getting flex to 
fly on Solaris 9 looks like a fight.  Right now it does not build from source.  

If anyone has Nessus 2.0.1 flying on Solaris 9 and wishes to offer me some hints, it 
would be appriciated.

Thanks!
