Hi,

I am having the same problem when I try to install Net::Nessus::Client I
get during the test phase of the install also the following error:

PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/bin/perl -Iblib/arch -Iblib/lib
-I/usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i386-linux -I/usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1 -e 'use
Test::Harness qw(&runtests $verbose); $verbose=0; runtests @ARGV;' t/*.t
t/base......ok
t/client....Can't call method "Plugins" on an undefined value at

make: *** [test_dynamic] Error 2

On Richardo's suggestion I did a "make install", which obviously worked.
In order to test the install I used the "nessusc" script that comes with
this package. The result was:

#>nessusc --port=1241 --user=XXXX --password=YYYY
Cannot connect to the Nessus server running at 127.0.0.1, port 1241:
Error while requesting NTP proto 1.1: Bad file descriptor at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/Net/Nessus/Client.pm line 151.

I looked into the Client.pm package to see where it went wrong. I
determined that the telnet session succeeded but it went wrong when the
string
"< NTP/1.1 >" was written to the socket. So I manually did:

#>telnet localhost 1241

A connection was established; as soon as I sent the string "< NTP/1.1 >"
to the session I got "Connection closed by foreign host".

Has anybody an idea why nessusd closes the connection, as I am out of
ideas here?

Thanks,

Just do a make install...
