Brian,

I'm a bit of a rookie but I'll offer my two cents.....
I assume you are running the server on Linux and the client on Linux. Are they on the same machine? You mentioned you run your scans via cron, which indicates to me you do not need the client? What are you using the client for (impromptu scans I presume)? Have you tried another client on another box (win or Mac)? Have you tried rebuilding the database "nessusd -R"? Are there any server of client logs that show anything? When the client crashes does it have any ill effect on the server?


Steve,

Hello all - got a problem.

After a plugin update on the first of August my client began failing
with a segmentation fault. I run both the update and the scans via
cron and scripts - so I only noticed last week. I've since upgraded
the client (2.2.8 for Linux) and the plugins but still have the issue.
Does anyone have any ideas?
