win2k3 server problem

I installed a nessus server/client on windows 2k3 last week. It appears it
is unable to do port scans. Every scan I run, regardless of which scanners
are checked, comes back with a report in the general/tcp section that no
port scans were enabled. Of course, I go back and check and sure enough they
are. I googled up that someone else had this problem on linux. I'm also
using 3.2.1. The server was installed with administrative credentials, and
I'm starting the client with administrative credentials (although this is
also repeatable under non-admin creds). I am running with a direct feed, and
it's updated as of late last week.

unfortunately, it would be a long time to pull the scan config off the thing
due to policies, however, i can say that this is even happening with the
default scan policies.
