Thanks for those who responded - the solution, since I've put the problem out here already, was to run the 'configure;make;make install' completely as root.
Normally, I run all builds (including all previous nessus builds, with no issues) as user, switching to root only for 'make install'. I've not often had a problem with that, but there have been a few exceptions. For the record, I did all of the below (and more) - re-installed libraries, checked that ldd could find what it wanted, checked permissions on /usr/keberos/libs and it's contents, made sure it was in ld.so.conf, re-ran ldconfig a number of times. All were intact and seemed to be found by system, except when I ran the configure and subsequent make as a normal user. I'm baffled as to what I did to cause that situation, but that certainly fixed it. Nessus was not at fault and compiled/worked flawlessly after install.

It looks like your SSL library is broken and can't find the Kerberos libraries it needs. [I bet if you run "ldd /usr/local/lib/libssl.so" you'll see messages about one or more libraries not being found.] I would see about re-installing it (whether from rpm or source). > The libraries not being found are installed and the kerberos libraries path > is in /etc/ld.so.conf. Are you sure??? Check version numbers and make sure the libraries aren't just broken links.
