I've read about Nessus built-in port scanner tcp connect() scan (plugin 10335) but after downloading the latest plugin from Nessus onto my Nessusd server (restarted daemon service) and reconnecting with NessusWX, I'm unable to locate this plugin in NessusWX.
SYN Scan (plugin 11219) is also not found.

Were these scanners available before you updated your plugins?

In NessusWX, when you group plugins by Family in the plugin list (F8), what plugins if any are listed in "Port scanners"?

Do you have any files matching "*.nes" on the nessusd host in the plugins directory? If not, you probably need to re-install Nessus on the server.
