Segmentation Faults

I was just wondering if anyone else has encountered this error when
attempting to redirect the nessus client from a redhat ES4 server to a
windows host.

With Nessus 3.2.1 installed and properly running on a RedHat ES4
server, after issuing the display command, and then executing the
NessusClient i receive this error:

[1]+ Segmentation fault /opt/nessus/bin/NessusClient

any ideas? I have tried restarting the nessusd server, and my X
client app on XP. I have other application that utilize x windows and
they don't have any issues.

thanks

Hi Chris,

Try to install the bitstream-vera-fonts or the bitmap-fonts packages
and try again.

RE: Segmentation Faults [In reply to]

They are already installed:

Package bitmap-fonts - 0.3-5.1.1.noarch is already installed.
Package bitstream-vera-fonts - 1.10-7.noarch is already installed.

Do you have any other suggestions?

Thanks-
Chris

I'd need the output of 'strace' then.

I corrected the problem this morning deleting the ./nessus-client
directory under my home directory. Relaunched nessus client and it
automatically recreated the hidden directory and the client worked
perfect.
