I am not sure of the proper way to replay to a list post, but here we go. I made the change so that fetch_args="-q -o -"
Here is my new error. ********************************************************** -su-2.05b# nessus-update-plugins -vv + test -n + test -n + test -n + test -n + tar=-xf + test -z y + tar=-xvf + id + [ -n wget -a -n /usr/bin/gzip ] + pwd + cwd=/usr/local/bin + tmpdir= + test -z + tmpdir= + test -z + tmpdir=/tmp + mkdir /tmp/nessus-update-plugins-12364 + cd /tmp/nessus-update-plugins-12364 + wget -q -o - http://www.nessus.org/nasl/all-2.0.tar.gz + test -f all-2.0.tar.gz + cat all-2.0.tar.gz + /usr/bin/gzip -cd + test 1 = 0 + mv all-2.0.tar.gz all-2.0.tar + cat all-2.0.tar + tar -xvf - + rm all-2.0.tar + test -f nessus_detect.nasl + echo Something went wrong when installing the plugins - uncompressing the plugins archive failed Something went wrong when installing the plugins - uncompressing the plugins archive failed + cd /usr/local/bin + rm -rf /tmp/nessus-update-plugins-12364 + exit 1 -su-2.05b# ************************************************************************ **** Any ideas?

The args used with wget should be "-q -o -". To fix this, edit nessus-update-plugins and define fetch_args as "-q -o -". Is that the way the script was distributed originally?
