I have been running some scans on a net that has several boxes running
MS TermServ - I can connect to them and I know 3389 is open but Nessus
isn't seeing it - When I look in the Configure services it shows 3389 
listed.

Plugin#10940 (windows_terminal_services.nasl)  is in charge of the
detection of this service.

Which ports did you portscan ? Did you enable the option "Consider 
unscanned ports as closed" (unscanned_closed) ? Was the plugin
enabled ? 

Finally, which version of Windows are you connecting to ?
