There's two other nifty little scanners out there now....nsat and rvscan. Not quite as thorough as Nessus, but much easier to configure and run. Sorry, don't have the links to 'em handy.

Hello everyone, what tool would you suggest that can scan a Linux system for all known exploitable programs? I am just looking for a simple host scanner that is open source and doesn't bother checking configuration errors but just tells me which programs need upgrading. -- Ben Williams LPI Certified (http://www.lpi.org) GnuPG Key ID 0x1C1551EC.
