Renaud, Thanks for the tip – I did just that – MAKEDEV a few more bpf’s and recompiled the whole suite and it works fine. As I intend to run a few nessus jobs through cron, is there some rule of thumbs on how many BPF’s should be configured per concurrent nessus process / host tested / concurrent pluggin? Many thanks once more for the hand, Olivier |
