Does "FreeBSD 5 and 6" mean that it will not run onFreeBSD 4.x, or that
4.x is not supported?

Thanks Renaud!

I'm thrilled to announce the availability of Nessus 3.0.0 !

Nessus 3 is a complete rewrite of the Nessus engine, designed for speed
and efficency -- as a result Nessus 3 is on average twice as fast as
Nessus 2 (with spikes as high as five times faster) and is less resource
intensive.


The Nessus 3 major enhancements are the following :

- New NASL3 engine
- Improved plugin storage for faster startup time
- Improved networking functions
- New scanner architecture to be both efficient and robust
- The Nessus daemon fetches the plugins automatically when registered
(this can be disabled in nessusd.conf)
- Improved error handling


Nessus 3 is available on the following platforms :

  - Red Hat ES3 and ES4
  - SuSE 9.3 and 10.0
  - FreeBSD 5 and 6
  - Fedora Core 4
  - Debian 3.1

The following platforms will be supported in early 2006 :

  - Mac OS X 10.3 and 10.4
  - Microsoft Windows 2000/XP Pro/2003
  - Solaris 9 and 10


I'm also happy to announce that we're extending the service we offer to
our direct feed customers to include full email support, with access to
our customer portal which gives users the ability to reset their
activation codes, track their support tickets, and have access to the
Nessus Support Knowledge base.

We have also changed our plugins license agreement so that consultants
do not have to fax us to ask permission to use the plugin feed any more.

Nessus 3 can be downloaded at <http://www.nessus.org/download/>


Thanks,


                                        -- Renaud
