Patrick,
Here's the startup script that I've been using. I grabbed it out of a nessus 1.x rpm
file and
tweaked it a bit. Works fine with nessus 2.0.3. Just copy it into the file
"/etc/rc.d/init.d/nessusd" and run "chkconfig --add nessusd"
Make sure the paths match your build, however, as I am running Mandrake 9.1, not
Redhat 7.
