OpenVAS commands getting Failed Authentication error


while trying to run some of OpenVAS CLI commands, i'm getting Failed Authentication error message. OpenVAS is installed on CentOS machine. I tried with the user account credentials but still getting the same error message.Is there any way to over come this problem?


Solution

  • Ok now I tried and found the solution. For every OpenVAS command we should provide the username and password.

    EX:

    openvas-cli -u xxxx -w xxxxxxx -g
    
    openvas-cli -u xxxx -w xxxxxxx -g
