Subject: Nessus Scan of Vista

 

Hello,

 

I have tried using Nessus to scan a Vista desktop for testing purposes.  I
left the Vista machine un-patched to see what results Nessus would generate.
The only thing it reported was the general/udp info about the traceroute and
general/tcp info about the scan.  I have updated the plugins and don't know
what else to do. 

 

Any suggestions or does Nessus not work with Vista?

 

Thank you,
