Thank you for the reponse(s).  I was hoping for a solution that allowed 
nessus to be used as more of an inline scan.  I ned to scan the systems one 
at a time when they connect.   Nasl worked great since I could run it with a 
single IP address on the command line and then take additional actions based 
on the "Success" response.

Can nessus take stdin for the IP address to scan?
Can the output of nessus be sent to stdout?
Can nasl be configured to enable dependencies?

Thanks!
