So nessus is not in the repos, but I installed the Debian 6 package from Tenable. It installed and works fine from my testing.
http://www.tenable.com
Yep. You even get the HTML5 version, which is very nice and works well.
Skorpinok i beleive brav0 ment he installed the verion 6 of nessus from http://www.tenable.com/products/ness...erating-system under the linux tab
If you get redirected to the TOS(Terms of service) just click "agree" an dit will get yo back to the link above
Here's how I did it.
Download the Debian 6 Package to /tmp on Kali for your specific architecture either i386 (32-bit) or amd64 (64-bit)
http://www.tenable.com/products/ness...erating-system
Debian 6.0 (32 bits):
Nessus-5.0.3-debian6_i386.deb
Debian 6.0 (64 bits):
Nessus-5.0.3-debian6_amd64.deb
Unpack the debian package
In terminal type:
There will now be an "etc" directory and a "opt" directory.Code:cd /tmp/ ar vx Nessus-5.0.3-debian6* tar -xzvf data.tar.gz tar -xzvf control.tar.gz
Copy the nessus directory in /tmp/opt/ to the /opt directory, make the /opt directory if it doesn't exist.
In Terminal type
You can now delete the contents of the nessus download in the /tmp directory if you choose.Code:mkdir /opt cp -Rf /tmp/opt/nessus /opt cp -Rf /tmp/etc/init.d/nessus* /etc/init.d
To Run Nessus, from a terminal type:
Open a browser and navigate to: https://127.0.0.1:8834Code:/etc/init.d/nessusd start # this starts the nessus server
Follow the remaining instructions. You WILL NEED to obtain a key/license from www.tenable.com even if only for the "free" version.
Great thanks blu3gl0w13
nessus succesfully installed, up & running
Thanks nessus worked.....
by the way i have a different account other thann root but every time i try to start a service like apache and mysql i get to put my password.... is there any way i can get rid of that bother each time i try something new onn kali?
You can download directly match your terminal architecture nessus deb package, and then install them manually.I downloaded the latest version 5.03, the installation was successful.
I did all of this, but when I run nessusd start, It says nessus not installed properly.. am I missing something?
I don't have to much to input other than I have been able to get Nessus successfully working with Kali. Good luck!
