Hi Renaud, The nessus-update-plugins script doesn't work on Solaris beacuse -C option is not supported on Solaris for tar extration(tar xvf).
I modified the code: $gzip -cd all-2.0.tar.gz | tar $tar - -C "$pluginsdir/" rm -f "$pluginsdir/MD5" mv all-2.0.tar.gz.md5 "$pluginsdir/MD5" to: rm -f "$pluginsdir/MD5" mv all-2.0.tar.gz.md5 "$pluginsdir/MD5" $gzip -cd all-2.0.tar.gz > "$pluginsdir/all-2.0.tar" cd "$pluginsdir" tar $tar all-2.0.tar rm all-2.0.tar to make it work.
