Local Security Checks on HP-UX

Subject: Local Security Checks on HP-UX
Date: Mon, 28 Feb 2005 17:39:59 +0530
Hello All,
          We are glad to see Local Security Checks being enabled for HP-UX 
platforms. It's been a great work. One more milestone for Nessus project.

Today, I downloaded latest Nessus soucre, build it on my HP-UX 11.11 machine.
I could find all my 7060 pluggins were loaded. And I created the ssh keys as 
per 
the doument present at the link;
http://www.nessus.org/documentation/index.php?doc=ssh

Also enabled them on Nessus GUI under the "Credentials Tab". And disabled
all plugins.

And enabled only "Enable Local Security Check" under General option and then
enabled all plugins under the "HP-UX Local Security Checks". When scanning is
over, I could not any things mentioning about the local security checks and 
patch
details of my HP-UX machines. Instead the nessusd.message tells that all those
plugins dealing with HP-UX Local Security Checks" were not lauched.

Snippets of nessusd.message are;
