The first step is to have Bactrack installed as a virtual machine on your pentest/audit rig or installed locally on the hard drive of the machine. I would like to share how to activate your copy of Nessus in Backtrack and some of the caveats that are present when activating it depending of your setup. Before I had to always follow some weird procedures some times to get Nessus installed on the early versions of Backtrack and those procedures where always prone to breaking when I had to update to a latest version. Ever since I started working professionally in security Nessus has been part of my toolkit, once nessuscmd was out it became more integral in to my workflow because I could automate stuff for my customers. So I was super happy to see it included as part of Backtrack. One of my favorite tools in my toolbox is the Vulnerability Scanner Nessus, in part because of it’s accuracy and because I’m part of one of the teams that works adding new cool stuff to it during the day.
