Looks like you have DNS problems.
type 'host -t a plugins.nessus.org'
until that works, you can't update the plugins, and the problem is
somewhere else, not nessus.

Subject: update plugin error
Hi All,
I recently downloaded nessus for my course work on an virtual machine
and I was unable to register the plugin activation code.
when i type the command :
# /opt/nessus/bin/nessus-fetch -- <registration key>
it gives me an error
" could not resolve 'plugins.nessus.org'
I tried an other method of installing the plugins manually by dowloading
the file.
# tar -zxvf all-2.0.tar.gz -C /opt/nessus/lib/nessus/plugins/
even this gave me the same error
could someone help me solve this error.
Many Thanks
Jyothi
