Hmm, I already saw that...

Ok, here's what I'd like to know:

- - I have nessusd installed - Mandrake's packages appear to have already 
created a server certificate; how can I verify this?

- - I want to create a certificate for a client - nessus-mkcert-client is 
apparently the tool for this; what do I do with the certificate once it's 
generated, and should I be generating this on the client box or the server 
box?

- - How should I be testing that nessus(d) is working with the certificate I 
create? (I assume I need to create a specific nessus user at some point?)

Cheers,

Mark.
