Thanks for your reply George.
It seems like my mail program chopped off my previous post (including the directory 
list and more questions), sorry about that.

By the way, I�m installing nessus 2.0.7 on a SuSE Linux (didn�t find the os vers nr)

I installed nessus by hand both times. I unpacked the tarballs in 
/home/terje/nessusdownload, and did the ./configure, make, make install from the 
directories created. I used no precompiled packages and no packet manager.

I didn�t specify a prefix. How/why do I specify this?

/usr/local/lib contains �libnasl.so -> libnasl.so.2.0.7� and �libnasl.so.2�, and other 
files (listed at the end of my post) but not �libnasl.so.1� It might be somewhere 
else, but I haven�t found it.

How can I get �libnasl.so.1� where it is supposed to be, and make nessus see it (I 
assume I can�t just copy it in there).

I have a feeling this is not going to be easy, so does anybody know about a detailed 
installation/configuration guide for ignorant windows guys like myself (with a bit 
more detail and even explanations for each step).

I�ll look through my log from the installation for any errors.
(I can only find config.log files, but I sent all output from the ./configure, make, 
make install to a text file. Are there any actual logfiles of the entire installation?)

Thanks for your time,�

-Terje, thinking, why is this not as easy as last time I installed nessus ;-)

I found someone making a suggestion to look at the file bindings (but it doesn�t tell 
me much)
