I was trying to use the "nmap.nasl" plugin under Windows XP (using version 3.2.1.1 of Nessus), but apparently it doesn't work under Windows, since it needs to execute third party binaries.
So then, my requirement is to import nmap results, and I will do some parsing in the way that the "nmap.nasl" plugin did. My problem is that I have created a very simple plugin, yet I cannot get it to load into Nessus Client.
I have added the following registry key to attempt to get around the unsigned plugin issue:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Tenable\Nessus] "nasl_no_signature_check"="yes"
The plugin I have created is extremely simple e.g.
if (description){ script_id(99998); script_version ("$Revision: 1.00 $"); script_name(english:"Nessus Test"); desc["english"]="Nessus Test";
script_description(english:desc["english"]); script_summary(english:"Nessus Test");
script_category(ACT_GATHER_INFO); script_copyright(english:"This script is Copyright (c)2008 Mark Woan"); script_family(english:"Nessus Test"); script_require_ports("Services/www",80);
exit(0);}
display(test);
It has been suggested to update the plugin cache, but not sure how that is carried out?
Thanks
Mark
