I have install this on my pc:

[root at djin ~]# rpm -qa|grep -i nessus
nessus-core-2.2.7-1.fc5
nessus-client-2.2.7-1.fc5
nessus-libraries-2.2.8-1.fc5
nessus-server-2.2.7-1.fc5
nessus-gui-2.2.7-1.fc5

But nessusd cannot start:

[root at djin ~]# /etc/init.d/nessusd start
Starting nessusd: mkdir(/var/lib/nessus/plugins/.desc) : No such file or 
directory
Couldn't open the directory called "/var/lib/nessus/plugins" - No such 
file or directory
Check /etc/nessus/nessusd.conf
**** /var/lib/nessus/nessus-services could not be found. Install it and 
try again
                                                           [FAILED]


And there is no file "/etc/nessus/nessusd.conf" or 
"var/lib/nessus/nessus-services" on nessus-server-2.2.7-1.fc5. Although 
I found this from repository:

[root at djin ~]# yum provides nessusd.conf

Where is both file? Another question, I can not find 
"nessus-update-plugins' on this software.

Ciao,
