First, you want to update your plugins, as this problem should have  
been fixed several weeks ago. Then, you probably want to forget  
running Nessus 2 on HP/UX -- just because it compiles does not mean  
it's going to work. Last time I checked, there were issues with packet  
forgery and raw packet sniffing which made a lot of the checks useless.
