By the way, what do the following commands report?

If he is using the official Debian packages the above will not be of
use. Plugin_folder is /var/lib/nessus/plugins while 'prefix' is /usr
in nessus-update-plugins ('varlib' however is '/var/lib' which makes
it install the plugins in the proper location). If you wonder why /var
is used instead of /usr:
[ from
http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/n/nessus-plugins/nessus-plugins_2.2.4-2/changelog
]
nessus-plugins (2.0.12-3) unstable; urgency=low
* Plugins located at /usr/lib/nessus/ moved to /var/lib/nessus/
since the contents of that directory can be modified by the
administrator when running 'nessus-update-plugins' and we want to be
FHS-compliant, don't we? (Closes: #260611) [Yes, I said I wouldn't fix
this, I corrected myself]
* Updated also the debconf template to reflect this (unfuzzied
translations manually when appropiate)
* Updated to latest plugins available (that's why the diff is so
big...)
