I have brought down many more servers this month than I ever did in the past even though I had disabled DoS. What went wrong? Thank you.
One possible problem is that you're enabling Thorough tests (under the 'Global variable settings' drop-down menu on the 'Advanced' tab). This causes Nessus to try running many of the service detection plugins against all open ports, not just those on the associated well-known service port.
