Hi There, I integrated Nikto into Nessus recently, and Nikto,nasl shows from the client side. I scanned one host to test If Nikto is indeed working. Here is what I did in order: 1. Disable Nikto from plugins, result shows there are 2 high vul. 0 medium vul... 2. Enable Nikto from plugins, the report is identical in 1. 3. Enable Nikto from plugins and plugins preference, result shows 2 high vul. and 3 medium risks. 4. Disable Nikto from plugins, the result is identical as in 3. 5. Disable Nikto from plugins and preferences, the result is still the same as in 3. kb_restore is disabled. I did not find 14260 or Nikto in any of the report. Can someone please explain a few questions I have? 1. Why step 1 to step 2 didn't differ, but step 2 to 3 did? 2. Why step 3, 4, 5 are identical? 3. Is Nikto indeed working? If it does, shouldn't I see the ID no. from the report? My system infor: OpenSuse 10.3, Nessus 3.2.0, Nikto 2.02 Thanks.
