Can you see the plugin from within the nessus console? (search the script_id) Try to add some debug info to the script, to see more verbose info (and post them here if you can) Run it via the nasl cmd sysntax like 'nasl -t [ip] [yourscript.nasl]' Watch nessusd.messages and nessusd.dump (if you have debugging enabled) for errors Is the test string correct for what you want to test? Do you have all required info like script_id, description, script_name, script_copyright etc. I would go for testing it via the nasl command line, and add debug parameters first. If it works there then try it from console. --Ferdy-- _______________________________________________ Plugins-writers mailing list Plugins-writers@private http://mail.nessus.org/mailman/listinfo/plugins-writers
