command line Nessus on Windows

Subject: command line Nessus on Windows
Date: Fri, 17 Aug 2007 15:50:26 +0100
Afternoon,
 
Is there a comprehensive list of all the options and switches that are 
available when scripting the latest version of Nessus using the Windows Command 
line tools?
 
I'm pretty new to Nessus and I've read the PDFs on the site but what I am 
trying to do is create scripts that will target individual servers and not ip 
ranges. This is easy enough to do by just repeating the 'NessusCmd.exe 
servername' command on different lines in a batch file but what would be good 
is to have a text file that lists the servers (I'll probably generated this 
file from information within a spreadsheet) and just pull the names from that.
 
I'd also like to send the results files from different servers to separate 
folders.
 
And finally is there a way to download the updates from the site, transfer them 
to another workstation on USB stick and then import them using the UpdateCmd 
cli tool? I'm presuming this will be another switch to use with the command.
 
Sadly running it on a *nix box isn't an option, we're a windows only place
 
Thanks
Mel
