Hi ,
I want to scan a slackware system and perform local security checks
but nessus (plugin 12634) returns this message:

-----------------------------------------------------------------
It was possible to log into the remote host using the supplied password
The output of "uname -a" is :
Linux ****** #6 Mon Jun 14 19:07:27 PDT 2004 i686 unknown unknown GNU/Linux

The remote Linux distribution is not supported, therefore local
security checks have not been enabled
-----------------------------------------------------------------

How can I tell nessus that this is a slackware and force it to perform
local security checks?

Thanks in advance
