Thanks, Ron.  My problems were that I hadn't added a user, and I also
needed to change the Scan Server Configuration to NOT use the loopback
IP address.  Both of these problems were addressed using programs I
found in the 'Tenable Network Security' program list.

Thanks

Hi

Is it possible to control a Nessus for Windows system from another
Windows system running NessusWX?  I tinkered and scanned the
documentation, but didn't see this mentioned.

Thanks

Yes. Most likely you need to open up the port Nessus is listening on the
Windows server and create a user account.
