Turning on mem leak detection

Subject: Turning on mem leak detection
Date: Fri, 22 Oct 2004 14:56:28 -0700
I was running a test which starts/stops a scan as clients to be scanned come and go, and noticed that nessusd kept getting bigger and bigger.

While poking around I saw that there is a HUNT_MEM_LEAKS define.

How do I compile libnessus to use this define? Simply adding -DHUNT_MEM_LEAKS into nessus.tmpl doesn't work. :-(

And once it's compiled in, how do I "look" into nessusd to figure out what is growing? Is there a tree I can view of allocations or something?

Thanks,
Lance
