Hi, I used plugin 21745 to check the remote login credential and I got the following result. When I entered the correct username and password in Nessus, I got the output statement "The local checks failed because Unsupported Linux distribution" and it still failed to log into the host. What does the output about? Does it mean that the scanning would be failed if I use plugins that needs credentials? P.S.: I am using Nessus 3.0.6.1 in Win XP and I can log into the remote host via SSH with the username and password that I've mentioned above. Thanks a lot~ Kevin ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Remote operating system : Linux Kernel 2.4.18-14Confidence Level : 99Method : unameThe remote host is running Linux Kernel 2.4.18-14Plugin ID : 11936 Synopsis :It was not possible to log into the remote hostDescription :The credentials provided for the scan did not allow us to log into theremote host.Risk Factor : NonePlugin output : The local checks failed because Unsupported Linux distributionPlugin ID : 21745 _________________________________________________________________ 聰明搜尋和瀏覽網路的免費工具列 — MSN 搜尋工具列 http://toolbar.live.com/
