Hi,

Hi is there a simple command line check to see if Nessus can
successfully log-in to a Unix system over ssh. I know I can use an ssh
client but I want to ensure Nessus can log in before I run the full
scan,

I guess you could run a scan with just plugin 21745 (local checks failed) enabled and see if that fires.
