Ok, I should have clarified my question a little better. Sorry...
When nessus is performing a scan, how do I specify which interface to
perform the scan from. I am not too concerned about which interface
nessus is serving client requests from (although I need to specify this
due to security reasons).
Thanks for your help guys, sorry for the lack of clarity.

Tell the server to only listen to connections on the address
<address> which is an IP, not a
machine name. For instance, "nessusd -a 192.168.1.1" will make
nessusd only listen to requests
going to 192.168.1.1 This option is useful if you are running
nessusd on a gateway and if you
don't want people on the outside to connect to your nessusd.
(Note: this isnt an up to date nessus install, so options may have
changed... yes, yes, slag me off later.. :)

Subject: Binding nessus to a specific interface?
Hey all,
How would I tell nessus to bind to a specific interface? I don't see a
configuration parameter or runtime switch that empowers me with the
ability to do this.
Thanks,
Wendell
