So if I have a standard admin user and password for each workstation on my Novell network I can put those in the SMB settings and it will still run the checks on those workstations?� I am mainly wanting to scan the workstations on the Novell network and wanted a more thorough check that is done like when you put in the SMB settings on a Windows based network.� So if I get what you said if I put in a standard admin username/password that I have for my Novell workstations in the SMB settings portioin of the configuration file then it will still run those checks?

Although if you have a standard admin user and password on each workstation; Nessus will run the checks on those workstations with that user/pass. If you're concerned about the vulnerabilities on the Novell server, I have run many vulnerability scans against production Novell 4, 5, 6 servers without being logged into the Novell network and found that the results were more precise when I enabled DoS and disabled safe checks.
