the plugin 21745 reports always "it was not possible to log into the remote host via ssh"

Have you checked whether you can ssh in from a commandline and gain access to a remote host? For example, if you've created the key '/home/test/nessus/ssh_key' on the nessusd host and are connecting to 'nessus@192.1.1.44', then try the following command:


  ssh -v -i /home/test/nessus/ssh_key nessus@192.1.1.44 id

Does that get you output from the 'id' command?

if I then have a look at messages I find "Protocol major versions differ for (ip-adress): SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_4.1 vs. SSH-9.9-NessusSSH_1.0"

These are likely from other plugins.
