Greetings. I was able to successfully compile Nessus on Cygwin (Windows 2000) and even get X and the gui working. Nessusd does not work right, it returns garbage to the client but I don't need that. The gui client does work right when accessing a remote nessusd on a Linux server. What I really need to get working is the command line nessus accessesing the remote nessus server. It "sort of" works but just hangs up and never returns. With the debug output I can see it doing some things and it does connect to the server. The same command line does work when run on the Linux box so I'm pretty sure it's ok. Does anybody have any experience with the Cygwin command line? I want to get this working so I can have a web app call nessus and return scan results to a web browser. It has to run on Windows since the app needs to use Windows-only calls and services. How can I even debug this? -- Chris Wagner CBTS GE Aircraft Engines Chris.Wagner@ae.ge.com _______________________________________________ Nessus mailing list Nessus@list.nessus.org http://mail.nessus.org/mailman/listinfo/nessus
