Ok, I tried removing /usr/local/lib/nessus/plugins/.desc and restarted
nessusd, but auto_enable_dependencies is still not working. I've also
updated my plugins (today), and now it looks like plugin 12213
(tcp_seq_window.nasl) is no longer working. :-(
Oh, I use newsyslog to automatically rotate nessusd.dump (as well as
nessusd.message), and I HUP nessus every night a few minutes after the log
rotation so that it will connect back to the log file (I've noticed that if
I don't HUP the process, nessusd will stop writing to its logs).
Here's the results of nessusd -d:
========================================
This is Nessus 2.2.4 for FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE-p7
compiled with gcc version 2.95.4 20020320 [FreeBSD]
Current setup :
nasl : 2.2.4
libnessus : 2.2.4
SSL support : enabled
SSL is used for client / server communication
Running as euid : 0
Include these infos in your bug reports
========================================
I hope the fixes coming Friday in 2.2.5 take care of this.
Thanks again for the help.
Chad

Hmm, try this: remove the directory /usr/local/lib/nessus/plugins/.desc,
restart nesssud, and rerun a scan. Does auto_enable_dependencies work this
time? It also might not be a bad idea to remove / rotate nessusd.dump to
avoid confusing things.
Also, what does "nessusd -d" report?
George
