Adding host info
I am currently trying to have the reports display the
scanned computer's IP, DNS, and MAC Address (or as
many of those that could be obtained).

I know, by default, the client uses only the IP
(or DNS if the DNS Identify option is selected).

Does anyone know of a way to get both of those?
and the MAC Address?

I'm sure some of it is stored in Nessus, somewhere.

Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks.

The MAC address is returned by one of the SMB NASLs if it's a windows
machine...
