Nessus "Could not open connection" Knoppix 3.4 (20

[victorhooi]

Hi all,

Just finished downloading this updated version of 3.4, and tried running nessus from the KDE-system menu, and logging in with username knoppix, password knoppix.` It then bails out with "Could not open a connection to the remote host"

I also tried running nessusd first as root, before trying again, which then ended with "login failed" (probably need to specific username/password).

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Victor

Oh sod it, my bad. You have to start Nessus via System - Security. If a mod sees this, could you please erase this post.

Thanks,
Victor
