i just stumbled across an error in the compile, and couldnt quite figure out
why...
i have nessus installed and i havent used or configured it yet, since there
was a portupgrade out i issued it:
portupgrade -v security/nessus
after the download, and the config, they both went well, i had the following
output at compiletime:

i took a look on the attack.c file and its corresponding code part:
<185> if(plug_get_launch(args) != LAUNCH_DISABLED ||
<186> category == ACT_INIT ||
<187> (category == ACT_SETTINGS)) /* can we launch it ? */
<188> {
a subfunction of the name plug_get_launch gets called.
a search through files including this function shows:
bash-2.05b# grep 'plug_get_launch' *
attack.c: if(plug_get_launch(args) != LAUNCH_DISABLED ||
pluginlaunch.c: processes[p].launch_status =
plug_get_launch(plugin->arglist->value);
pluginscheduler.c: status = plug_get_launch(plugin);
pluginscheduler.c: if(plug_get_launch(arg->value) != LAUNCH_DISABLED)
pluginscheduler.c: if(plug_get_launch(l->plugin->arglist->value) ==
LAUNCH_DISABLED)
utils.c: if(plug_get_launch(plugins->value) != LAUNCH_DISABLED )num++;
the most interresting piece of code hereby it looks comes from the
pluginscheduler.c file:
/*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
/*
* Enables a plugin and its dependencies
*/
static void enable_plugin_and_dependencies(plugins_scheduler_t shed, struct
arglist * plugin, char * name, int silent)
{
char ** deps;
int i;
int status;
deps = hash_get_deps(shed->hash, name);
status = plug_get_launch(plugin);
if ( status == LAUNCH_DISABLED )
{
if ( silent == 0 )
plug_set_launch(plugin, LAUNCH_RUN);
else
plug_set_launch(plugin, LAUNCH_SILENT);
}
if(deps != NULL)
{
for(i=0;deps[i] != NULL;i++)
{
struct scheduler_plugin * p;
p = hash_get(shed->hash, deps[i]);
if( p != NULL )
enable_plugin_and_dependencies(shed, p->arglist->value,
p->arglist->name, silent);
else
log_write("'%s' depends on '%s' which could not be found\n", name,
deps[i]);
}
}
}
/*---------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
im not quite good with coding, so my view through ends somewhere here:/
however, i strongly believe im doing something wrong, just if not, i hope
this helps you further.
