With Nessus3, you can limit the number of parallel TCP sessions. Apart from this, nothing changed for nessus_tcp_scanner between Nessus2 and Nessus3. The maximum parallelism is mainly computed from max_checks (what you called "Y"). safe_checks reduces it. max_checks is clamped down to 5 for this computation. Note that the maximum parallelism is only reached when you scan a firewalled machine. _______________________________________________ Nessus mailing list [email protected] http://mail.nessus.org/mailman/listinfo/nessus
