The problem:

Have made a installation on MacOS X 10.3.2 by following (http://www.nessus.org/doc/nessus-2.0.9-on-panther.pdf). The version of Nessus i have used is 2.0.10a. The problem is that i cant scan any other machine the localhost. If i do try to scan a machine other then localhost then nessus seem to be quickly conecting to them but not running any tests. The resluting report contains nothing. I should say that i can ping and run nmap on the hosts i try to scan. Thir seemd to be another mail on the list about this problem but thir was no solution posted
(http://mail.nessus.org/pipermail/nessus/2003-December/000330.html)


My nessus.conf file contains the following:
#
# Added by nessus-mkcert
#
cert_file=/usr/local/com/nessus/CA/servercert.pem
key_file=/usr/local/var/nessus/CA/serverkey.pem
ca_file=/usr/local/com/nessus/CA/cacert.pem
# If you decide to protect your private key with a password,
# uncomment and change next line
# pem_password=password
# If you want to force the use of a client certificate, uncomment next line
# force_pubkey_auth = yes
users = xxxx
plugins_folder = /usr/local/lib/nessus/plugins
--------


The last two lines i have enterd manualy because problems with nessus-adduser and nessusd complaind it could not load the plugins.

My path variable contains both /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/sbin.


Any help greatly apriciated
