Hi Ron, I'm sorry to report that I again ran the ls -lt | more command in /opt/nessus/lib/nessus/plugins and the plugins that were present when I installed Nessus 3.2 have not been updated. As of today (3/31) they are still dated 3/18, and I have been online often in different locations with the Nessus service running which should have updated the plugins. Have the plugins been updated since 3/18 as I suspect, or do I have the latest ones? When I enter the command ps -ax | grep nessus, I get this output: 3300 ? S 0:00 nessusd: nessusd-update : idle 3301 ? Ss 0:00 nessusd: waiting for incoming connections Does this mean anything to you? Is there a shell command to force a plugin update? Thanks. _________________________________________________________________ Watch “Cause Effect,” a show about real people making a real difference.
