I am thinking your using something like Cygwin under windows to do the SSH?  If that is correct then your getting a unix like shell, bash or similar and so the Windows checks will not work with that.

You would probably have to reconstruct all the tests, since they use a different mechanism entirely. It might be possible to take the content of the tests and then change them so they are working on localhost once you log in

Hello

I want to check windows patch levels through Nessus.
All ours servers ( Windows / Unix ) are running SSH without password ( key
exchange ).

>From the source of the plugins, confirmed by my checks, the "Microsoft
Bulletins" family checks the
credentials by "opening" the IPC$ share, providing login/password to do
this.
Obviously if you have only SSH credential, this does not work.

Would it be possible to use ONLY SSH authentication on windows , the same
way it's done on Linux / unixes
