Is iptables running on the Linux server running Nessus?  (My question
assumes you were running the X client on the same machine as the Nessus
daemon.)  If it is, you'll have to open up port 1241.

Thanks everybody, my nessus server is working fine, thanks folks.
However, when running the client on Linux, it connects and I managed to
scan 2 servers. However, I downloaded the win32 version on a win 2003
box, I can not connect to the server on linux. Of course I ping the
linux machine. Iget the following error in the output window


ERROR: Cannot establish connection with 192.168.0.10 (Socket error 0).

So is there a config param to allow/Deny clients remotly?

Second question, in the win32 interface, in setting dialog box I have
the possibility to designate a database. On Linux I issue "nessus" on a
terminal session to laumchthe client, is there another way or just it is
not possible to point to a database.

Thanks
