I have built Nessus 2.0.12 on AIX 5.2 ML04 using gcc 3.3.2, and all seems to be well.
I don't have any experience with AIX; just have some questions: o How exactly did you build it? nessus-installer.sh? Manually? Something else? o Does the AIX commandline client work for connecting to nessusd on your linux box?
The Nessus daemon, however, does not open port 1241 for listening, and it does not complain either.
o How are you starting it... "nessusd -D"? o Are any errors recorded in the syslog? What about nessusd.messages (or whatever logfile in nessusd.conf points to)? o Does it stay active or exit? o Was it configured to listen on a unix socket or a different port? o Can you run truss / syscalls to trace the execution of nessusd and pinpoint the problem?
