Hi All,
i want to run simple exploit with my vm target,

i am having following setup  my host is XPSP3

VMWARE installed in this XPSP3,
as target System, i have installed XPSP2 as guest OS in VM ,
VM-XPsp2 is bridged with Host XPSP3

i have installed following tools in XPSP3-host

Nessus home edition 4.1
Metasploit framework 3.5 and
Metasploit community edition

a) i am able to scan for vulnerablitiy  and list them in nessus to export
in .nessus and .nesses(v1) format

b) i gave following  command for converting .nessus to .nbe format

c:\progra..f\nessus\nessus --dot-nessus "exported nessus file name" -i
"name given in scan name in nessus" -o requiredname.nbe

this worked well, conversion was successfull  but while importing the file
.nbe in framework 3.5, the frame work closed with out any error,  i am
stuck here

b)

When you switch to root account did you use "su " or "su -". Make Sure to
use the latest.

I use BackTrack 5 R1 with default root account. So i don't switch users.
It
was my fault when i didn't specified that before hand. But i'll keep
that in
mind in other distros.
Thanks

My .2 cents.

Hey HaZ -- works here (both root and sudo) with a recent nmap svn.

 -A is run all scripts, os detection, version detection, script scanning
and output - this definitely requires root

I'd suggest checking the nmap list
(http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev), or ping the
authors
through the mechanism they specify in the book.

I guess i'll try to search for an answer in the nmap-dev list. I used the
command inside the msfconsole. I'll try outside it and try to figure it
out.
Thanks :)

Not exactly, i guess. I've found that out before writting on the mailling
list. Thanks anyway :)

And again, thanks for all the answers. Maybe it's a permission bug
associated with using this command inside the msfconsole.
