Hi list, I'm in a process of securing my Nessus scanner. Currently, the scanner runs with the default startup options (-D -q), which makes it accessible by anyone. I want it to reject any connection attempt, except from 2 IPs (adding the -a option) The scanner'IP (on a RedHat box) is x.y.z.218, and I'm running NessusWX on x.y.z.219. When I start the daemon with "nessusd -D -q -a x.y.z.218,x.y.z.219", it rejects every connection, including those from x.y.z.218/219. Does that mean that -a only accepts one single IP, or am I doing something wrong ????? -- Web and Co Patrick Derwael Rue Hubert Larock, 20 4280 Hannut email: pderwael@webandco.be http://www.webandco.be _______________________________________________ Nessus mailing list Nessus@list.nessus.org http://mail.nessus.org/mailman/listinfo/nessus
