One way is to use the nessus client (nessus -qp ...) to retrieve a listing of what's currently available on your server. [And as Javi has pointed out, you can use '-qSp' to have the output be formatted as SQL.] Depending on the version of the client, you'll get 9 or 11 fields which contain most of the interesting bits. An alternative approach would be to use my describe-nessus-plugin script. This reads the NASL plugins (only *.nasl, not *.inc or *.nes) and parses out information from the description part: from just one function to all of them. For more info on the script, visit <http://www.tifaware.com/perl/describe-nessus-plugin/>. George -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
