RE: Nessus-Nmap command line

["Kevin Reiter" <KReiter () insidefsi net>]

Sounds like a question better suited for the Nessus list, but since I happen to know the answer, .. :)

You have to install the nmap.nasl on your server first (see www.nessus.org for the docs), then configure it via the GUI 
client.  Once you do that, check your .nessusrc file, and you'll see the available nmap options you can set for your 
Nessus scans on both the commandline and when using the GUI client.

Hi,

I have seen in nessus client the option to use nmap as scanner, but I can't
find the nessus command line in order to use nmap. Does anybody know how to
do it?

Thanks,
