This would speed up the starting sequence.
As far as I can tell, it already has quiet in it: start() { ebegin "Starting nessusd" start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec /usr/sbin/nessusd -- -D eend $? } I realize it still moans a lot, but I don't think there is much more we can do. Is there?
But this is more quite : start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --exec /usr/sbin/nessusd -- -D --quiet This prevents nessus from printing out "...plugins loaded.."
Cool. Done, thanks!
