OK, I cleared (zeroed) nessusd.messages and nessusd.dump to get clean copy. I 
then fresh installed the 2.0.9 version and ran one simple test (just 
"General") against two systems.

dump contains some stuff as well as messages (including some SIGSEGV 
occurred).  It appears that tests are being performed ... just no report 
generated (although I can view a report generated and saved on another 
system).

The easiest way may be for me to wrap these into a compressed tarball and 
email them directly to you ... agree?
