I have a requirement to run some specific tests at certain intervals.  How
do I setup the nessus configuration files to do this?  For example, I want
to ping a host and execute all of the MS-SQL tests against the device.  I
can't seem to find an answer.

One way may be to configure the Nessus configuration file via George Theall's update-nessusrc script to meet your requirements
(http://www.tifaware.com/perl/update-nessusrc/)

and then setup a cron job to run the scans.
