I’m having the same issue with NeWT
(fully licensed version) on a WinXP PC. I went ahead and configured Nessus3 on
Fedora Core4 and it works without any problems. Not sure if that helps you or
not, but I just wanted to let you know that you’re not the only one with
a scan hanging up when launched from NeWT. - From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Timothy Carroll Hello! I am demoing NeWT based on a recommendation
from a colleague. I am having a problem with NeWT locking up in the
middle of a scan. First, I was using the free (class C only) version and when run
from my Server 2003 boxes (I tried four different boxes), NeWT would stop
somewhere between 30% and 40% when doing the “all but dangerous
plugins” scan. I would let it run 2-3 days just to make sure, but
it wouldn’t budge. It appears to just have hung. If I ran the
scan from an XP SP2 workstation, I had no problems. This was an annoyance
because the workstations are on a different VLAN (and different class C), so I
had to put my workstation on the server VLAN. But I digress. I spoke with sales and got a 30 day demo code to run the
full version of NeWT. Now, from Server 2003 it gets to about 98% and
hangs. Same symptoms, just further along. I can’t try the
full version on my XP box because the NeWT registration code is keyed to the
machine name. I’m not sure why adding a registration code would
change when the program locked up, but it did. But either way, I’d like to run this from one of my
Server 2003 boxes because they stay on 24/7 and somebody can’t bump the
power switch or whatever since it’s locked in the server room. Any ideas? Timothy
