Hi,
Hopefully someone is watching this list :)

The nessus patch manager seems to be down (as does nessus.com), though 
I don't know if this is recent or if it's permanent.  This one is small
enough that I'm just posting it here though.

This patch adds a '--with-nmap' option to the configure script in
nessus-plugins.  This option can be given as:
    --with-nmap=<path to nmap>  Use the given path as the nmap binary

    --with-nmap=<directory>     Search <directory>, <directory>/sbin, 
                                <directory>/bin for nmap

    --with-nmap                 default, search path for nmap

    --without-nmap              Don't use nmap, this also turns off the
                                warnining about not finding nmap at the
                                end

Notes: 
- The default behavior is not changed.
- autoconf needs to be run after applying this patch
