Last Update: Comment added ( sf-robot )

Won't run if your MySQL password has a '#' in it.

This is also an issue with "updateplugins.pl".

The # character is a comment character in all Inprotect
config files. All characters after and including # in the
config file are discarded. As a result, # is not permitted
as a character in mysql password defenitions for Inprotect.

Not critical. Just wanted you to be aware of the issue.
One of my default passwords has a "#" char in it.

The following was the error as reported in
/var/log/nessus_scan.log

OK - will look into this next week. If this is a major
issue for you (let me know) and I will issue you a patch
and then release it in 0.22.6 which is planned for
sometime at the end of October.

Can you also send snippits of logs / errors you get at the
command line please.

Cheers,

A.
