Problems scanning a range of IPs

[Alex Campoe]

Thanks John. It was a bit hard to search for this problem. The NessusWX 
interface actually does not allow CIDR. You can specify individual IPs, 
IP/Netmask, or a range with IPstart IPend. However, you did give me an 
idea. I will try to run a scan directly on the server, without NessusWX. 
Let's see what happens.
