I must schedule my scans to run during the evenings. Nessus is installed
on a Windows XP Service Pack 2 machine.

I am familiar with using the XP "AT" scheduling command to schedule a
batch file to run during the night. When running my batch file under the
scheduler it failed. When just running my batch file within a DOS
command line window it failed. If I just type in the command at a DOS
C:\ prompt like so:

C:\Program Files\Tenable\Nessus\NessusCmd.exe 10.0.110.71 It fails. I
get messages like:

Scan target: 10.0.110.71

Policy: allsafe

All safe plugins are selected

Initializing...

And then it stops and says "Cannot connect to Nessus Server"

In my scan.log file, I see a line like:

GetBestInterface failed: 0

 

I would greatly appreciate any tips in getting scans scheduled to run
during the evenings. Thanks!
