Is there some reason you're using this particular hostname? Apart from
the issue of whether you're authorized to scan hosts in that domain,
there's another problem -- there's no A record for hope.fr.nessus.org,
only an MX record.

This syntax works for me with 2.0.10. Which version are you using?

Any chance these are leftover entries from previous attempts to get
Nessus running? If not, do they occur if you use hostnames with A
records?
