Can anyone offer a suggestion as to why scans performed against the same Linux (RHEL 4) platform using both the Windows & Unix versions of Nessus 3 provide different results? The Unix version results were: Open ports : 6 Low : 19 Medium : 0 High : 5 The Windows version results were: Open ports : 6 Low : 20 Medium : 0 High : 0 The biggest concern is that Linux identified 5 High vulnerabilities while the Windows version did not identify any. The high vulnerabilities identified all related to updates to RH RPMs. As far as I can tell the same audit options were specified for both Nessus versions. Thank you for any assistance you can offer. --john _______________________________________________ Nessus mailing list [email protected] http://mail.nessus.org/mailman/listinfo/nessus
