Description ChazeFroy 2005-11-09 08:01:09 UTC
Nessus 2.2.6 was released.

#  Fixed a problem which would prevent nessusd from starting up properly when
the system clock is not configured properly
# Under certain circumstances, the plugins preferences may appear twice in the
Nessus GUI
# nessus-fetch is more reliable when used in a very low bandwidth environment
# nessusd has higher memory limits when running on a 64 bits CPU
# New NASL function socket_get_error() which returns the last error which
occured on a socket (timeout, connection reset, etc...)
# Removed the C function http_recv_headers() in favor of http_recv_headers2()
written in NASL
#  The Windows Bulletin checks now check the version of the files on the remote
host (when possible) instead of looking at the registry
# It is now possible to disable CGI scanning entirely in the "Global Settings"
preference panel
# Rewritten several key plugins (dcetest.nasl, netbios_name_get.nasl) to better
support the underlying protocol
# nessus_tcp_scanner now performs multiple passes, for improved reliability. It
also is much quicker against BSD machines (which have a rate limitation for the
RST they send)
