All,

Is there a way to scan, with dependencies enabled, that will not
report on these dependencies?  I am only concerned about the
dependencies insomuch as they allow the specific plugin to be
executed, I am not concerned with their results.

For example:

If I were to scan for MS04-038, without either manually or
auto-enabling of dependencies, the plugin would not execute.
If I were to scan for MS04-038, and manually or auto-enable
dependencies, I would get many items back, such as "The following
NetBios names have been gathered" and "An SMB server is running on
this port".

My plan is to implement a multitude of nessus scans, cron'd to run at
specific times, and drop the results files to be read into Crystal
Reports server.  But, unfortunately, when I perform a scan which might
have only 5 positives (out of 3000 workstations), I get 1000+
'additional' incidents, which are not what I directly scanned for.
