A little more information about this box: it's a Virtuozzo virtual machine
with the following:

For whatever reason, nessus is sending a lot of traffic with a source port
of 127.0.0.1, which obviously is just going to be discarded at the other
end. I've tried running nessusd both with and without the -a flag, and it
doesn't seem to make a difference.
How can I force it to use venet0:0 as the source interface?
