However, I've installed the NessusClient v3.2 on an XP SP2 box and am running into a problem. Specifically, I can connect to the Nessus Server and create a simple scan against say, one host/Microsoft Patches but the scan never finishes (as in 8 hours later). A PS shows the "nessusd: testing boxa (nessusd) and no error messages.I have witnessed the same thing on my side. I am running also a Nessus Client 3.2.0 on Windows XP SP2 (fully patched, English version) and Nessus 3.2.0 on FreeBSD 6.3-RELEASE (without and with patches applied through freebsd-update).
Yes, there is a problem with the Nessus 3.2 binary on FreeBSD 6. The
issue has been identified and resolved, and we should push a new build
next week. In the meantime, downgrade to 3.0.6.
Sorry for the inconvenience,
