Errr... you diff turns :
<    if(!strcmp(tmp, "\r\n")||
<       !strcmp(tmp, "\n"))break;

into:

>    if(strcmp(tmp, "\r\n")==0||strcmp(tmp, "\n")==0)break;


Which is the same thing. However we found a bug in network.c a little
while ago (fixed in 2.2.4 which will be released today). Try to install
Nessus 2.2.4 from CVS[1] and let me know if it solves your nessus-fetch
issues.

Thanks,
