I just spent a day getting the Net::Nessus* perl stuff working.  I used
Net::Nessus::Scanlite and was able to connect to the new 3.0 server and scan
something.  So that works.  Right now I'm trying to get it working from a CGI
app.  That's not going so well.  It complains "Nessus login failed 1: Protocol
error < NTP/1.2 >".  It's using SSL.  But the exact same code works when called
from the command line.  Apache(Win32) probably can't do something since it's
running as SYSTEM.  Any ideas?

PS: Thanks for mentioning that, Net::Nessus* is just what I need!
