I have built a new kernel with debugging disabled to reduce the noise to the terminal. I have - device bpf - uncommented in the config file and I commented out unneeded device drivers. I built a new world yesterday. The build and install went without error. I started this thread on freebsd-questions this morning; Re: Trying to build nessus 4 from ports When trying to install the binary downloaded from tenable.com - Nessus-4.4.1-fbsd8-amd64.tbz using pkg_add it says I need to enable more bpf devices. Deleting the package then attempting to install from /usr/ports/security/nessus results in a successful build but when nessusd is started it errors out on 'libz.so.5 not found'. FreeBSD 9 is at libz.so.6. I really like FreeBSD 9 on this machine but I have a work project that involves port scanning, intrusion detection and forensics. That is why I am attempting to get Nessus working. I would like the company to purchase Nessus for business but I have to get it working on my test network first. I am trying to follow Mr. Richard Bejtlich's book 'The Tao of Network Security Monitoring'. Maybe I need to fall back to FreeBSD 8.2 in order to be successful? Are there other security tools which build without error on FreeBSD 9? Thank You Michael
