I had already set the path in /etc/profile. I didn't realize the path
was set in the script.  
I updated the following line and it now works.

$ENV{PATH} = '/opt/nessus/bin';     # nb: should be where nessus is.

Thanks,
tom

The nessus CLI client is not in the path that's defined in
update-nessusrc. Since Nessus 3.x puts it in "/opt/nessus/bin" by
default, you should edit the script and adjust the path.[I actually
fixed this a couple of months ago but haven't pushed the change out from
my subversion repository yet... I'll get to that tonight.]
