You probably want to check in Nessusd.messages is the whole scan took
place and if anything wrong happened. Given the info you're giving us,
it seems that find_service.nes runs but nothing else. Is there
anything in nessusd.dump ?

No errors are reported in either the .messages or .dump file. I did a
"grep -v ' Loading '" and eyeballed what was left - no issues that I
could see.

You may also want to try to flush and recreate your plugin database,
by doing nessusd -R


Ahhhh... That smells like good advise... I'll see if that kicks the problem

On one box I saw a message fly up suggesting to run "nessusd -R" when I
restarted /etc/rc.d/init.d/nessusd. Instead I reran the rc script and
that message didn't show again - so I assumed it must have done the job
itself?
