You are missing the single quote after hostname>

So it would be 
$nessusd_host=<hostname>';
$nessusd_user='<username>';
$nessusd_user_pass='<password>';

Subject: Trouble with update-nessusrc and Nessus 3.0.2

I have not tried this with any earlier version so I don't know if it's a
problem with 3.0.2 or my configuration.

I'm trying to get update-nessusrc working with 3.0.2.  I've created my
.update-nessusrc file and the script is reading it.

The contents are:

$nessusd_host=<hostname>;
$nessusd_user='<username>';
$nessusd_user_pass='<password>';

When I run 
------------
./update-nessusrc /root/.update-nessusrc
------------
I get the following:
------------
Can't run 'nessus -v' - No such file or directory
 at ./update-nessusrc line 417
------------

What am I missing?

I've searched the archives but if the solution is in there, I missed it.

Thanks,
tom
