Use /opt/nessus/sbin/nessud -D to launch the server
Install NessusClient to get a GUI ( choose your flavor : version 1 or 
Version 3 beta )
Use /opt/nessus/bin/nessus to have a command-line run ( I use this 
rather in crontab and unattended scans)

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
