I have had similar issues with nessus's port scanner and nmap. Nmap will find ports open on our vpn device - nessus won't, never didmanage to get it to see these ports open in the end. -----Original Message----- From: nessus-bounces@list.nessus.org [mailto:nessus-bounces@list.nessus.org] On Behalf Of jamjam Sent: 20 October 2006 22:45 To: Nessus@list.nessus.org Subject: Nessus misses open ports that nmap finds Hello, I am running nessus 3.0.2 and nmap 4.03. I scanned 10 hosts with both nessus and nmap. Nmap identified 2 holes (HTTP and HTTPS) that Nessus "missed" on 1 of the hosts. Several of the other 9 hosts were running these same services and the holes WERE identified by both Nessus and Nmap. Is there some "throttling" or "timing" issue occuring here? Your help is appreciated. Thanks
