I am running Nessus 3.0.2 for Fedora Core 4 on a Pentium 4 with 500 MB

After scanning ~50 windows servers and workstations I found the
following system message:
Warning!!!: Connections Rejected due to high load average 98 Time(s)
Load Avg 12: 19 Time(s)
...
Why were those connections rejected?
That's not an error message from Nessus, which suggests you've got
something else running on the nessusd host; eg, logwatch + sendmail. In
that case, it's difficult to say what the problem is from just some log
entries. Are the errors repeatable when you run a scan? Are you running
scans when, say, delivering a large number of messages or messages to a
large number of recipients?
