I successfully installed the nessus. It was .deb file . first of all, I type
"sudo dpkg -i Nessus-4.2.2-ubuntu910_amd64.deb".
The output of this command was "You can start nessusd by typing /etc/init.d/nessusd start"
That's why I type that command and I get " $Starting Nessus : ." There is nothing like interface of this software, when I try to search GUI from synaptic package manager. So What should I do ?
I am using nessus 4.2.2. When running with command line:
nessus -q -x -T html 127.0.0.1 1241 myUser myPassword listTarget.txt output.txt
1241 is default port of nessus
The error throw out:
nessus : Could not open a connection to 127.0.0.1
But when I running nessus GUI by browser with localhost on port 8834 is ok.
this always happen when i do a fresh install of openoffice always forget to save the language pack for the interface... can somebody tell me where the heck are they? i've found the dictionaries but those don't change the interface
View 3 Replies View RelatedI want to install nessus. I run the following in the terminal:

I get a message that the package is not available and anther package replace it. However I am interested in nessus and not in openvas-client (the other package). So how can I get the nessus package.
i want to install Nessus gui by using yum .HOw to Play with it .i want to conduct

I have a machine that I want to install Nessus on it.
Nessus supports many Operating Systems:
Microsoft Windows
Mac OS X
Linux
FreeBSD
The full list is here: [URL]... What would the best OS to install Nessus on for performance be?
after some tweaking i managed to get nessus installed on my machine. However i'm running into an issue when trying to add a user.The nessus daemon is running on my machine, i've registered. I think everything is peachy in that regard, but when i run:
Code:
zachadmin@ubuntu:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/nessusd restart
$Shutting down Nessus : .
$Starting Nessus : .[code].....
Obviously the command not found is my error, from what i understand there isn't a default user placed in the first time.So essentially i have thie program installed, but i can't access it.
Whether NessusCleint and Nessus Server are available as two different packages or they have been merged into a single package.
Earlier there used to be 2 diff packages one for Nessus Cleint and other for Server. But now i was not abel to find any package for clinet and in the only package thats available on nessus.org also does not contain any cleint in it.
I have a backtrack distro on a usb stick. I wish to do the following :-
(a) Partition the usb stick to have a ext3 filesystem, so that the instln may be persistent for the changes. But the fdisk utility creates partitions as dev/sdb1p1 and /dev/sdb1p2. These however, could not be accessed by mkfs utility. How to overcome this problem.
(b) Next , I downloaded the nessus .lzm file and put it in the /base/module dir. But unable to start the nessus daemon. It suggests an error regarding unable to create /opt/nessus and /etc/nessus/nessusd.conf. I think starting nessus as root would help but the problem persists!

It's listening on the default nessus port 9390. I am trying to connect to the nessus server instance using Open-VAS Client. I have generated the client and server certificates, I have pointed the client at the User Certificate File, the User Key File and I have a CA cert. I have created a user account on the nessus server. The problem is that when I try and log in from the Open-VAS client it keeps saying it can't connect. Is there anywhere I can check to see if it's being caught in a firewall, or where I can see if the connection is even making it to the server..
Fedora 12
Nessus: 2.2.11-5
Authent: using passwrd
Client: GTK version
User: added with no rules
nessus-mkcrt: has been ran
Hosts.allow: hole made for localhost to nessusd with nessusd:127.0.0.1 (this took care of my ssl error)
Upon trying to log into daemon I get the cert then prompted with failed login. I am also not getting anything showing up in my logviewer (gnome). For most other daemons I have had them automagicaly pop up (denyhosts for example) how can I get nessus to show up as well.
I am looking for recommendations on open source accounting software for small business that could be run via web interface on CentOS 5.The more user friendly it is the better. Users use the windows platform for their desktop environment.

When I do...# iptables -L...I see rules in my INPUT and OUTPUT chains that look scary:ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere...but these rules only apply to the loopback interface. I tested it and the server cannot be reached on open ports from the outside world. How can I make iptables show the interfaces that the rules apply to?Otherwise, every time I do iptables -L it will scare the crap out of me.

When I try to open any nfs-mounted file using OpenOffice, I get a pop-up window titled "Document in Use". The text of the message is:
"Document file 'abcde.odt' is locked for editing by:
Unknown User
Open document read-only or open a copy of the document for editing." I then have three options - <Open Read-Only>, <Open Copy>, & <Cancel> If I cp any of these files from the mounted directory to my home dir (not mounted), I can open them without problem.Also, my firefox & thunderbird date are in this mounted directory as well (sym links to ~dan/.mozilla & ~dan/.thunderbird). Both of these apps hang when trying to open, leaving two processes behind that need to be manually killed. Again, cp'ing the data out of the nfs-mounted dir onto a local dir resolves the issue, so I am 100% confident there is nothing missing or corrupted in the firefox &/or thunderbird data...
relevant entry in /etc/fstab:
server:/nfs/dan/Documents /home/dan/Documents nfs defaults 0 0
relevant entry in server's /etc/exports:

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong but I've been running Ubuntu or a variant for about a year now and suddenly every now and then one or two of my documents (open office or pdfs) have no information and they won't open.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a problem that I can't seem to figure out. I can easily create a .sh file that will execute a command in Terminal, but as soon as it executes the terminal disappears. How do I get it to stay? My idea is to have the keyboard shortcut "ctrl+alt+del" open a .sh file with the contents "ps ax". Then it would be just like having a task manager; the terminal would open with "ps ax" already executed, and all I would have to do is kill the process number.

I can't open it at all.I don't have a .tomboy file in my /home directory, or in my /home/brasel directory. I've uninstalled and reinstalled, I even cleaned out my computer via the computer janitor and it still wouldn't re-install and run.
When I open an open office document from an NFS share it always opens as readonly. This was a problem I had on Arch linux and the fix was to change the locking options in the soffice script but I've tried that fix here and it doesn't work. I've seen a lot of discussions but they all go back to changing the locking options in soffice, has anyone got any alternative fixes or one that definitely works with locking?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a while(1) loop, and the error is: glibtop: open (/proc/stat): Too many open files This error occurs after about a half hour to an hour of running. I've tried running this multiple times, both with using glib_close() at the end of the loop, using glib_init() and glib_close() at beginning/end, and just using glib_init(). The strange thing is these have no effect on the actual glib_get functions.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have sendmail running on my centOS 4.6. My lamp server also runs on it. I want to send mail through php mail function. when i execute php page, which fires the mail function, it takes so much long tim1 say even 1 minute, and at last displays that message sent successfully. Suppose, destination address is [URL].... I did not get any mail there. My server is running in LAN. I checked the status of sendmail, it shows me that it ios running. when i issue "nmap localhost" it shows me that SMTP port 25 is open, but when i issue "nmap myserver" (192.168.1.20 myserver ( written in hostfile)), it does not show that SMTP port is open.
I checked the /var/log/maillog, one person in my previous post advice me to see that. There it shows that message is accepted for delivery...but i do not get any mail in my destination, even not in spam folder. One more confusion is that, in my case my server is in LAN and if I am at all enable to open the SMTP port on it, does i need to open SMTP port on my router (which connects my LAN to internet) also needs to open? I think no, because SMTP is application layer protocol, it will wrap my mail in IP packet, which router just need to forward. am i right?
I have configured a squid proxy; it's running, but there was a problem: it does not provide service to client side.
