Sorry, there is a bug, I misread the specification of the protocol.
0 = connection refused, even in version 3.3.
I fix the script...

I noticed recently that a plugin I had disabled (10395) is still showing
up
in scans. I'm assuming that a plugin that is enabled requires it -- auto
enable dependencies is turned on and silent dependencies is turned off so
if
there is a dependent plugin I would expect this. This situation leads me
to
a question: is there a reasonable way to get a list of what plugins depend
on another?

I'm using Nessus 3.0.4 server on Linux ES 3. I need the list of all the
possible events generated by the Nessus 3 server.

Can anyone provide me the list of all the possible events generated by
Nessus 3 ??

Can anybody help me to generate Plugin related events on Nessus 3. I
changes
the nessusd.conf file parameter *log_whole_attack *to yes still not
getting
the plugin events. It's crucial for my project.

Everything worked fine until I changed the IP address of the FC6 box.
Now all my scan results come out null.



I use NessusClient 1.0.1.  It downloads the plugins fine.  I created new
certificates for the server and the users and then rebooted, but that
didn't do it.



Help would be appreciated.  Many thanks.

take a few of the IPs that are coming up blank and see if you can ping
them
or traceroute to them. check the route. use nmap to see if you can port
scan
them. see if you can connect to a port like ssh from the server. It can
get
packages, which means it can get somewhere, but without knowledge of how
your network is structured, I couldn't say what's blocking it. If your
site
has client based firewalls centrally managed, a change in IP would move
you
out of the whitelist and on to blank scans. if you have a divided network,
you might be able to route out but not into other parts of the net.

there are a lot of reasons why this wouldn't work

Noam Rathaus wrote a tool named plugin_depend.pl that was included in
the book "Nessus Network Auditing". If you don't have a copy, you can
probably find one through Google.

Other than that, there's no good way that I know of short of looking at
the source.

If by "events" you mean attacks or packets, there is no such list.
You'll need to develop one yourself by studying the plugins, if you're
interested.
