Hm, you're right. There also exists a plugin to identify a vmware-server.
vmware_detect.nasl relies primarly on the MAC adress, but the list seems
not to be complete for not discovering my VMware :)
vmware_server_detect.nasl checks the banner of the VMware remote-console
but also failed to identify my server. Hopefully I got time to write a
fix during my holidays.
Cheers,
Toby

Hi folks,
While scanning networks how good is nessus in identifying VMWare
running machines?
Does nesssus scan and report OS and Applications on VMWare successfully?
Nessus identifies if the remote host is running under VMWare with
vmware_detect.nasl. All the rest (OS/Applications) is done by standard
Nessus plugins.
