Hi there,

have you allready check the Nessus Options? There is one point where you can
say: "Include all plug-ins" or "Just -not dangerous- plug-ins" (or something
like that) ... if you use the full options, Nessus also performs DoS
Attacks, and maybe crashes one of your still running deamons. Seems to be an
importent deamon ... if the box crashes down ...
