the chown command changes user and group ownership on a file or directory. "chown ntp:ntp <file>" would cause the <file> to be have both user and group changed to "ntp" The error may indicate that you do not have either a user or a group called "ntp" on the system. You should check the /etc/passwd and /etc/group files. e.g. "grep ntp /etc/passwd" or simply "cat /etc/passwd" Jim ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robert E.

I've installed Nessus on a Gentoo box and it's apparently working correctly. On bootup this message is displayed: chown 'ntp:ntp' invalid category What does that mean? Do I need to change something in the config file? Thanks. _______________________________________________ Nessus mailing list Nessus@list.nessus.org http://mail.nessus.org/mailman/listinfo/nessus
