Trouble getting Nessus to launch

Subject: Trouble getting Nessus to launch
Date: Sat, 22 Sep 2007 11:38:55 -0400
Morning,

I am new to this list and Nessus and need some advice.

I had an earlier version of Nessus (2.2.9-1.fc6.i386) and wanted to install
the latest version 3.0.6-fc6.i3896.  I used yum to install the old version
and was able to successfully install the 3.0.6 version.

My question is how do I launch Nessus?  I am running Fedora Core 6 and admit
to being new to Linux/Fedora.

I was able to register Nessus, ad update the plug-ins using the terminal.  I
added a new user by drilling down thru the Filesystem to the
/opt/nessus/sbin folder and using the  commands  in that folder.

For the life of me I cannot get the app to launch.

Thanks in advance for any help/advice.

Wayne
