I have downloaded the .deb ( No source available ) and have started the
install process..

I'm running Debian / Auditor install and I have dependency issues with
Berkley XML database. I have installed
The new version of Berkley but it didn't correct the issue...

I should be able to get that worked out when I have some time this
afternoon.

So will Tenable continue to provide free plugin feeds after 7 days
release time?

Subject: Nessus 3.0 released

Tenable released Nessus 3.0 yesterday. More information at
http://www.tenablesecurity.com/news/pr37.shtml

New licensing debates aside, has anyone yet had a chance to test this
new version out? As a long-time user of Nessus, I'm curious just how
improved the performance is, especially on server-side resource
utilization.

Has anyone had a chance to run comparison tests between the old and new
versions yet? Renaud, I know you and some others from Tenable lurk on
this list. Any comments or hard numbers you could provide on the
performance differences (or other areas of improvement like reporting)
would be very welcome.
