nessus scan locally but it wont login with ssh

Hello,

Im trying to let nessus scan locally but it wont login. 

I've got a pub and private key for ssh and i can login from an other pc with
: 

ssh -v -i ssh_key  <mailto:nessus@192.168.0.1> nessus@192.168.0.1 

when i do a scan operation with nessus I get everytime 


Code:



Mar 28 14:16:26 localhost sshd[21794]: Did not receive identification string
from 192.168.0.10 



so i guess nessus cant read/send the ssh_key file to the nesses server?  (or
something with the fingerprint?)


I tried with an without a phassphrase but both doesnt work. I tried to
remove the space after = in .nessusrc (SSH settings[password]:Passphrase for
SSHkey : =)

 

 

Kind regards,
