After updating (uninstall old, clean install new) from Nessus 2.6 to 3.0.3, our recent scan caused multiple abends on our NetWare 6.5 servers. It effected about 50% of the servers scanned. Abend was: EIP in LIBC.NLM at code start +0008BB95h Running process: BTCPCOM.NLM 6 Process Thread Owned by NLM: BTCPCOM.NLM Safe checks were enabled and port scanning was enabled. This approach worked ok with (no NetWare abends) using our previous version of Nessus. I did read a Novell TID from 2003 (2966492) concerning a field fix for Nessus port scanning causing an abend with Btcpcom.nlm, but all our servers have the same date and version recommended by the TID. Servers are a mix of NetWare service pack level, SP2, SP3, SP5. We are working to get all to SP5. It was about a 50-50 mix of effected servers in relation to the service pack level. I have yet to find any pattern to pursue, other than the obvious info from the abend logs. Does anyone have similar experience or any insight?
