Hi Steve,
Hello,
I was wondering if there was documenation posted on how to run Nessus in the command shell (I believe this is called, Batch Mode)
I've searched the net and have found very little in terms of procedures.
My goal is to run Nessus without using the GUI.
Currently, I'm running the following command:
# ./nessus localhost 1241 userid userpass target.txt
This command does not run nessus and instead pop's up the help file for nessus.
I am running version 2.2.5
The key flag you are missing is '-q'.
Alec
