Thread-topic: Options for command line scanning
Hi all,

I'm trying to setup a cron job to scan certain hosts on specific ports (output 
from a previously-run nmap scan), but every option I've tried just displays the 
help screen.  Is it possible to do this from the command line?  I know how to 
do it with a GUI client, but I'm trying to automate the process.  Any 
assistance would be most appreciated.

O/S: FreeBSD 6.2
Nessus Server/Client: 3.0.5
