RE: nessus scan locally but it wont login with ssh

Yes thanks for the pdf. I did the same as described in the pdf but still it
doesnt work. I tried to use client / nessusd host on the same machine too.

Used multiple clients, windows and Linux but with the same result.

I have compiled the nessus Linux client by myself, 1.0.0.RC4. When i do
ssh-keygen -t sda i get a fingerprint but it isnt saved. Do i need to use
the fingerprint somewhere? Maybe thats the problem!?

I tried to login with only a loginname/password too but i get the same error
as before.

Normaly i do need to get something like?!:
Mar 30 13:32:49 localhost su[18139]: pam_authenticate: Permission denied
Mar 30 13:32:49 localhost su[18139]: FAILED 

Instead of 
Mar 30 12:52:46 localhost sshd[17797]: Did not receive identification string
from 192.168.0.1

With user/pass method

I hope you understand my problem, 

Greetings,

If you haven't done so already, please take a look at:

  http://www.nessus.org/documentation/nessus_credential_checks.pdf

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

Silly question -- if you have a passphrase for the key, are you also
supplying that in the nessus client config?

Have you also tried from the nessusd host?
