Thanks for your reply.  Problem iam facing is everytime i run a scan
using  # Nessus -V -T html_graph localhost 1241 username password
report.txt result <dir>

Its creating a static dir with name result. If i schedule to run as cron
job, above command unable to overwrite existing dir, and its coming out
of scan.

Instead of using a static name in the crontab entry, use one based on,
say, the date; eg,

  nessus ... results-`date +\%Y/\%m/\%d`

This would output results in a directory named "results-2005-12-27" if
the scans were run today. [NB: the escapes are needed in the crontab
entry as otherwise percent-signs are translated into newlines.] Refer to
the manpage for the date command if you want to use another format or
need to include the time scans were run.
