Invalid response file

I've searched everywhere for the answer to this issue and the follow-up was not 
sufficient.
I am also on SUSE 10,however, I registered on another system and moved the 
nessus.rc file to the /opt/nessus/bin/ directory.
I restarted the host and I am running everything as root so I'm puzzled. Any 
help is appreciated, Thanks

Here's the details:  SuSE 10, latest nessus release downloaded and 
registered. Host device can reach the internet (nslookup of www.nessus.org 
reveals:  66.240.11.101.

nessus-fetch --url http://www.nessus.org/ test returns "invalid 
response file"
nessus-update-plugins fails with:

Any ideas?
