| Subject: | VMware ESX host scan |

| Date: | Thu, 23 Aug 2007 11:41:41 +0200 |
Hello I have to check a VMware-ESX host. This is a Red Hat based distro:
cat /etc/redhat-releaseRed Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 3 (Taroon)
My issue is that I can log on this server via ssh from the scanner's host, but the nessusd itself seems unable to log on it. The /var/log/messages on the target tells :
Protocol major versions differ for a.b.c.d: SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_3.6.1p2 vs. S SH-9.9-NessusSSH_1.0
a.b.c.d is the IP address of the nessusd host. Apparently, the VMware host does check the ssh client and does not allow 2 different clients from the same host. Did someone know about this? Is this RedHat specific or is it added by the VMware ESX ? -- Cordialement / Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards, Patrice ARNAL Alcatel-Lucent _______________________________________________ Nessus mailing list Nessus@list.nessus.org http://mail.nessus.org/mailman/listinfo/nessus
