NessusWX - Problem Getting a Report

Subject: NessusWX - Problem Getting a Report
Date: Mon, 18 Dec 2006 16:38:04 +0000
I am running Nessus v. 3.0.4 and executing NessusWX 1.4.5d from a Windows 2000 system.

I have no trouble getting a report when I specify a single target.

When I tried to run it against a subnet, I saw the summary screen showing the percentage completion of the port scan and security tests. During the time it is running, I could pull up the reports on the IP addresses processed. I left after 4 hours; it kept running. When I came back the next day, there weren't any reports. I received the following messages:

I would appreciate some assistance in finding out what caused this problem.

I'm also having trouble scheduling the scan to run on a particular date and time. I tried using Windows Task Manager but can't select the scan to run. When I delete all other scans except the one I want to run, it looks like the job is kicking off, but I still don't see anything happening in NessusWX. I was told a macro was the only way to get this to run at a specific date and time. Is this true, or is there another way? Please help. Getting up at 4:30am to run it is getting old mighty fast!

Thanks in advance.
