Both clients are using NTP 1.2 and I've set all the preferences in ScanLite that seem to be relevent (based on the export of my Windows session), but still getting different results when I run the scan (ID:16193) with ScanLite (does not find a hole). The log from the ScanLite scan is longer since log_whole_attack = yes is set.

What does nessusd.message have to say about antivirus_installed.nasl when you submit a scan? Are the necessary dependencies are being launched too?

What about reconfiguring the clients / server to support plaintext communications and see what's being passed back and forth by your Perl script versus a client?

where in the Windows and/or Linux gui client I can set log_whole_attack=yes/no?

Typically, it's set on the server side, in nessusd.conf. I don't think there's a way to do it in Windows client or GUI, short of editing the config file, but I'm sure someone will jump right in if I'm wrong. :-)
