Hey list,
I plopped a copy of nessquik 2 down on freshmeat, so if you're
interested in giving it a go, feel free to download and try it out.
here's the freshmeat link
http://freshmeat.net/projects/nessquik/?branch_id=65837&release_id=241183
and here's the link on my home area
http://home.fnal.gov/~tarupp/
and if you want to wget it, here's the direct link
http://home.fnal.gov/~tarupp/nessquik/nessquik-2.0.tar.gz
There's a lot of new stuff this time around.
- scan progress bars and fun
- settings can be configured for individual scans
- reports can be sent in text or html
- there's a scheduling feature, so you
can just create scans and let them
reschedule themselves
- reports are saved for later viewing
- and a hoard of bug fixes to make things more stable
- oh and lots more stuff, just use it and see.
or read the changelog in my home area.
I'm still doing all development on the 2.x version of nessus, so I cant
say for sure if 3.x works equally well with nessquik. We're tossing
around the idea of using 3.x, so eventually I'll get around to verifying
that it works.
A couple points about the next big release.
- php 5 folk will be able to cancel scans in progress
- a diffing feature will probably be added to see
differences in scan reports
- histories of saved scans will be added
- further customization of scan settings
- a new, equally simple, interface is in the loop.
- point and shoot "scanmenow" code that we wrote in house.
Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks!
-Tim
