Hi, Problem: I am not able to enable plugins that can crash the remote hosts. See the warning message: ========================================================= [miraj@miraj ~]$ nessus -P localhost 1241 username password | grep safe_check *** The plugins that have the ability to crash remote services or hosts have been disabled. You should activate them if you want your security audit to be complete safe_checks = 0 ========================================================= I have tried changing my $HOME/.nessusrc and the nessusd.conf (restarted server) file, but no luck ========================================================= [miraj@miraj ~]$ [miraj@miraj ~]$ grep safe_check $HOME/.nessusrc safe_checks = no [miraj@miraj ~]$ [miraj@miraj ~]$ grep safe_check /opt/nessus/etc/nessus/nessusd.conf safe_checks = no [miraj@miraj ~]$ ========================================================= I am registered uses, but NOT a "direct feed" user (if this info helps). Can some one tell me how do I enable the crash-plugins? Any links or documentation already on this? -miraj |
