Re: custom nessus frontend

["Nathaniel Hirsch" <morgothan () gmail com>]

I am not a lawyer but I think this would violate the terms of service
for Nessus.  Sections 1.4. and 1.5. of nessus's terms of service talk
about stuff like this, and it pretty much says without written consent
from tenable it isnt allowed.  So if you ask for consent and get
permission to do it, they will probably give(sell) you the API. Other
then that I dont think you can do it.
