Some how I missed doing this via the list - hopefully this will help someone else, at some point.

Thanks Javier

Thanks for the responce..
I installed the "2.2.4 installer ( for all unix systems )"
I choose against the apt get route, as its such an old version..

¿?
- Stable (aka sarge) has Nessus 2.2.3
- Testing (aka etch) and Sid have Nessus 2.2.4

or does it then have a command to bring its self up to date?

If you are using sarge then just point your /etc/apt/sources.list to 'testing' then:

- apt-get update
- apt-get install nessus nessusd

If you don't want to run an etch/testing installation on your system. Use 'debootstrap' to create a chroot in your server with a 'sid' installation with no services at all, chroot into it, install nessusd 2.2.4 and use your nessus 2.2.3 client from stable against the server from unstable (running in a chroot).
