Installation help - something simple

Subject: Installation help - something simple

Dear support,

 

I am having some trouble installing Nessus.  I installed Nessus a coupe of
years back and remember it being easy to install.  

 

This is a new install on a new PC,  before used the lynx -source
http://install.nessus.org | sh command and it did everything for me.
However this option no longer works for me on my new PC.  It is a reinstall
version of Red Hat linux 9 I'm using.

 

First of all it's says something about not package gtk+-2.0 not found but
will continue without GUI.

 

Then it seems to go through where I want it installed (/usr/local) > STABLE
WWW > Proxy no > then I get this Forbidden error:

 

Nessus will now be installed on this host. The
packages will first be
downloaded from nessus.org, then they will be compiled
and installed
                                             
Press a key to continue

Press any key to quit

 

Please help on this, it must be something silly I'm missing here (being a
Windows man really doesn't help).

 

Thanks

 

Andy
