What do you have in your .nessusrc file?  Here's the first 2 lines of mine, and 
I don't get that prompt:

trusted_ca = /usr/local/nessus/com/nessus/CA/cacert.pem
paranoia_level = 1

Also, have you run 'nessus-mkcert' on that box?

Version of nessus I'm using: 3.0.5

I'm trying to launch a scan from the command line and Nessus keeps asking me to 
approve the ssl certificate. When I hit "y"
it spits back Invalid server certificate.

command syntax I'm using:
/opt/nessus/bin/nessus -c <config file> -V -q 127.0.0.1 user pasword 
target_list report.html &

When I try and do the above I get an ssl error that says:
[6027] SSL_connect: error:14094410:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert 
handshake failure and then everything craps out.

Any help would be appreciated.
