Direct, Registered and GPL Feeds

Subject: Direct, Registered and GPL Feeds

Hi,

Are they any known problems or concerns with the GPL Feed Option?  Is this URL 
still valid "www.nessus.org/nasl/all-2.0.tar.gz?"

Thanks  Patti


Three feeds are available - Direct, Registered and GPL.

A 'Direct Feed' is commercially available which entitles subscribers to the 
latest vulnerability checks. Customers who purchase a Lightning Console or NeWT 
Pro scanner receive access to this feed with their annual product maintenance.

A 'Registered Feed' is available for free to the general public, but new 
plugins are added seven days after they are added to the 'Direct Feed'. To 
obtain access to the 'Registered Feed', users are required to enter contact 
information for tracking and also agree to Tenable's license agreement for the 
plugins.

The 'GPL Feed' does not require registration, and includes plugins written by 
the user community. As manager of the Nessus project, Tenable continues to 
accept plugins written from the Nessus and NeWT user communities. Plugins 
accepted with a copyright under the GNU Public License will be distributed to 
the Direct, Registered and Public feeds at the same time.
