nessus : Login failed

[Christopher J Bidwell]

Hi all,

I have a dilemma here.  When I log in via the gui on nessus or even nessus 
WX, I get no problems, but when I try and run a batch-mode job, I get 
nessus : Login failed. 

Does anyone know the reason for this?

Here is my exact syntax of my file:

nessus \
--output-type=nbe \
--config-file=/usr/local/nessus/primary. \
--batch-mode 10.10.10.10 1241 username password \
/usr/local/apache/scan/create-main/running/cr-4793/cr-svrs-16Dec04-0010 \
/usr/local/apache/htdocs/states/cr/critical/cr-svrs/done/nbe/cr-svrs-16Dec04-0010.nbe

Note:  This does work when I log in as myself (cbidwell).  Any other 
username will not work.

Thanks,

Chris
