newbe question

[Sean Murray <smurray1_12203@yahoo.com>]

I am new to nessus, but I am very familiar with some commercial scanning products.  I have a server I am scanning that has a https web server running on port 443 (no other ports are accessable).  When I perform a scan, the report always comes back with 0 open ports.  I sniffed the traffic with ethereal and I can see the connection to 443 being made and TLS messages being sent back and forth, but nessus still reports 0 ports open (the report does show dns and traceroute data).  I have tried changing the policy in for various settings, but I can't seem to get nessus to even report the port being open.

 

I have a feeling I am missing something basic, but I can't seem to find it by searching the faq or newsgroup.

 

Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

 

Thank!

STM
