Problem installing OpenVAS on BackTrack 4 Final

Hello to all,
I am having Problem installing OpenVAS on BackTrack 4 Final. I have successfully installed openvas-libraries using following command:

Code:

---

cd openvas-libraries + ./configure && make && make install

---

When I unpacked openvas-libnasl and press enter using "./configure && make && make install" command I get following error message:

Code:

---

(...)
cd nasl && make

Please help me to fix this problem. Thank you.

As OpenVAS is not in Backtrack 3 by default you can download the lzm module of OpenVAS stable (2.0.0):
openvas-2.0.0.lzm

After you download, boot the remastered Backtrack3 cd, open a terminal and enter following:

* openvas-setup (this will setup openvas and run openvas-mkcert and add user)
* openvas-nvt-sync (optionally - if you have internet connection, download latest plugins)
* openvasd -D (run OpenVAS server, ignore the missing inc files warning, we're still building free replacements)
* OpenVAS-Client (run OpenVAS Client)

Hey why you are tried to install OpenVAS in your BackTrack 4 Final. This is because OpenVAS is already installed in BackTrack 4 Final. You are tried to install software that is already installed in the BackTrack 4 Final and that's why you are getting such type of problem. There is no need to install OpenVAS in the BackTrack 4 Final.

Hey OpenVAS is already installed in the BackTrack 4 Final. I also have BackTrack 4 Final in my computer which has openvas2 installed in it. I want to asked can I change the version of my openvas to the latest version like version 3. Should I uninstall openvas2 from my computer and then install openvas 3 in my computer.

Hey it is very easy to install OpenVAS 3.0 in your computer. Just use following steps to install OpenVAS 3.0 in the BackTrack 4 Final.
1.First go to the package manager.
2.Now search for OpenVAs.
3.Now there you will see OpenVAS 3.0, just download and install it.

As OpenVAS is not in Backtrack 3 by default you can download the lzm module of OpenVAS stable (2.0.0): openvas-2.0.0.lzm
If you don't have experience with adding additional lzm modules to Backtrack, read this.
I hope this will you.

Hey you have to just modify your "/etc/openvas/openvasd.conf" configuration file by changing "nasl_no_signature_check" option with the following:

Code:

---

nasl_no_signature_check = yes

---

Now you can run the vulnerability scanner (openvasd).
