Maybe I need to modify something in the nessus config file? I tried playing around with it, but I find no way of issuing a command where I can only get the results of this specific plugin.

You need to be using Nessus 3 and then check out the "nessuscmd" command line
tool. It's covered in the documentation and we blogged about it while Nessus
3.2 was still in beta here: http://blog.tenablesecurity.com/2007/07/nessus-32-beta-.html
