[zimmaro]

hi
if you want to "enable" nessus 5 in bt5-r2 (gnome-32)i'm using this method:
#open terminal:
1) firefox http://www.tenable.com/products/nessus/ (select to download a version for ubuntu 10.04)
2) dpkg -i """"package downloaded"""
3) apt-get install -f (optional)
4) service nessusd start (for starting nessus deamon)
5) /opt/nessus/sbin/nessus-adduser (add user or admin)
6) firefox http://www.tenable.com/products/ness...ter-a-homefeed ( to obtaing a code via mail)
7) /opt/nessus/bin/nessus-fetch --register xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx (your register-code"xxxx-xxxxx......)
8) /opt/nessus/sbin/nessusd -R (update-plugins)
9) firefox https://127.0.0.1:8834/ (graphical-interface)

Thanks for that but how can I install Nessus 5 to a separated directory (ie /opt/nessus5/) so I can run both (not at the same time of course)?

Maybe a lame question but i did get the current version of Flash this one >> install_flash_player_11_linux.x86_64.tar.gz

and Nessus did not work with it, but flash seems to work fine for youtube or any other thing i think. So is the install of Nessus on Backtrack 5 R2 broken or what?
