Scanning Virtual Servers

Good morning all,

I am looking for opinions from anybody with experience in scanning
virtual servers with nessus. Do you treat it the same as a stand
alone server? How do the scans affect the host machine, if at all?
Any tips good or bad? etc.

Thanks for the info.

Todd

Re: Scanning Virtual Servers [In reply to]

Hello Todd, I have a development network that is all running on vmware (free version), and I treat all of the servers/workstations as if there were build on hardware.

The only think that I've ran into is I had a assessment of a application that used a usb device as the license key, the free version of vmware didn't discover it correctly, the pruchased version of VMWare does..

Take Care and Have Fun --John
