What I did was to write a wrapper script for nessus that parses the results
and inserts them into a database. This kind of setup is very site specific
as needs and environment differ. The type of output file to use depends on
what you want to parse. If I remember correctly I use the nbe.
As to the padlock, most probably the file is owned by root and you are not
running as root. Either change the ownership of the file, e.g., sudo chown
<your userid> <path and file to be chowned>, or change the permissions to
allow others to read them, e.g., sudo chmod a+r <path and file to be
chmoded>.
