Hi everyone:
I compile nessus 2.2.3 under Cygwin,nessusd -d shows:
This is Nessus 2.2.3 for CYGWIN_NT-5.1 1.5.18(0.132/4/2)
compiled with gcc version 3.4.4 (cygming special) (gdc 0.12, using dmd 0.125)
Current setup :
nasl : 2.2.3
libnessus : 2.2.3
SSL support : enabled
SSL is used for client / server communication
Running as euid : 1005
Include these infos in your bug reports
And yes , all C plugins do not work, actually I cannot compile C
plugins into .nes, it always complains "Warning: I can find ....but I
cannot find a share version..." because it cannot find
libnessus.so,libnasl.so ,libhosts_gatherer.so in my
C:\cygwin\usr\local\lib\
When I scan my machine where nessusd runs, it seems to work well, but
when I try to scan other machine, it can not find anything,
nessusd.messages shows like this:

- deleting the session
and nessusd.dump shows:
Error opening adapter: 系统找不到指定的设备 // system cannot find the device
And last, when I scan my machine, it is not very slow compared to run
nessus in virtual machine.
Anybody has rewritten find_service in NASL or How can I compile C
plugins under Cygwin ?
Thanks in advance

I did this a long time ago, before NeWT existed, because in one
special case, I needed Nessus on Windows.
IIRC:
- C plugins will not work, so you'll need a way to portscan the
targets. Now, the best way is probably to use the NASL nmap wrapper,
but when I did that, it was still a C wrapper so I rewrote a port
scanner in NASL.
- worse, find_service is still in C, so you must rewrite it in
NASL. The result will be slow as NASL does not provide any way to
multithread the script. Without find_service, the scan report is
worthless.
- a couple of other C plugins will have to be rewritten or removed.
- I don't remember exactly, but I think there was a problem with raw
sockets. Either they were not reliable, or needed some hacking to work
with WinPcap. BTW, I suspect that you ran into a problem with ping_host.nasl
- and last but not least, as Cygwin emulates Unix fork, the resulting
software is *very* slow.
IMHO, running Nessus on Cygwin is rather brain damaged now. Unless
this is a programming challenge :)
