The client connects fine and will scan any IP of the local subnet.
However when I key in an IP of my outside network it will not scan.  It
just sits there and than goes to 100%.  I click view report and it says
no report is available.  I an ping and tracert to the IP I'm tring to
scan from my nessus box.

I'll take a look at the nessus.log file.  Where is this located. I did
the install from lynx -source http://install.nessus.org | sh and it
installed in /usr/local/sbin -- at least that is where the nessusd
command is.

When you say the nessus server does nothing, do you mean
you're using something like strace or truss and the client
connection is never made? Or do you instead mean that the
client *appears* to do nothing?

Does anything appear in the Nessus logs (nessusd.messages or
nessusd.dump)?

Also, how are you specifying the targets? If by hostname,
can they be resolved from the nessusd host itself?
