Okay, follow-up....

Looks like that install did work, and I can even get Nessus to detect
plugins 18027, 18028, and 18502 now.  However, it appears that somehow,
auto_enable_dependencies got broken.  The server will not automatically scan
for dependencies.  If I manually turn on plugins 10150, 11011, 10785, and
12213, then the plugins will work.  Without them, regardles of the fact that
I have auto_enable_dependencies set to 'yes' in both nessusd.conf and the rc
file I'm using for the scans, it does not launch the necessary plugins.

Also, and I'm not sure if this is related in any way, I found a typo in
11011 (cifs445.nasl).  In this script, 'script_dependencies' is misspelled
as 'script_dependencie' (missing the final 's').

Thank you George and Renaud for all your help!

Chad

Okay, well, when I had that yesterday, I decided to try installing from the
gzip files instead of using the installer script.  That fixed the
'get_hostname' problem, but I ended up with a new bpf problem.  Since you
posted this, I've decided to uninstall and reinstall Nessus again (using the
installer script this time).  When it starts the installation, it recognizes
that gtk isn't available and says that it will install without the gui.
Great, this is what I want.  However, as the script continues, I see the
following:

exec.c: In function `execute_nasl_script':
exec.c:1822: warning: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target
type
nasl_func.c: In function `insert_nasl_func':
nasl_func.c:100: warning: passing arg 4 of `qsort' from incompatible pointer
type

Just a few lines after that, I also see:

x -- Configuring the sources for your system
configure: warning: **** gtk not found

Is any of this stuff normal or typical?  The compilation errors look
feasible, but I'm not sure if that's just how the code is written and the
compiler is mistaken.  As far as the configure warning, I would think that
configure would recognize that gtk wasn't installed and would not need to
display this warning.  Am I incorrect?

Thanks.

It turns out this was a problem introduced in ssh_func.inc yesterday and
fixed a few hours ago. Update your plugins if you haven't already and this
should be fixed.
