Thread-topic: need direction

I start nessusd from /etc/rc.local.  Starts fine.  I have a series of shell/c++ programs that do things like prepare the list of servers that will be scanned, check the time for the start of the scan, email the scan results, etc.  If I am logged in, these work fine.  I would like to start the main calling shell program from rc.local as well.  If I do this, the nessus scan (from command line  of course) never runs.  It is skipped. All the rest of the programs complete…useless without the scan.  Please point me in the right direction for running nessus NOT logged in…
