Hello list,

I have a problem with nessus client, when i invoke nessus with this args :

$nessus -q ip port user pass /tmp/host /tmp/host.nbe -T nbe

Result :
*** The plugins that have the ability to crash remote services or hosts


have been disabled. You should activate them if you want your security
audit to be complete
Segmentation fault.

More information with gdb :
*** The plugins that have the ability to crash remote services or hosts

I am using kernel 2.6.18-2-amd64 GNU/Linux and nessus ( source download of homepage official and compiled ) 2.2.9 and libc6 2.3.6.ds1-11 (debian etch)

We have two machines with amd64 and debian etch, the problem is in both machines.

Thanks people.
