The how-to in the blog post below didn't work out for me with OpenVAS 9 on Ubuntu 16.04 (didn't really investigate why). But a new OpenVAS 9 install from the sources on Debian 8.9 Jessie did the trick.
Also, if you follow these steps on Jessie, don't get fooled by the 'Error 500' message when checking the distant scanner: as long as you provide the right cert, the task with the OMP slave scanner will run just fine. -- Benjamin-Hugo LeBlanc | Clé PGP: 0x5823C22CAA9EE32F Sécurité applicative et gestion des vulnérabilités technologiques Québec, Canada | 418.446.1623 ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ 2017-08-16 4:04 GMT-04:00 Thijs Stuurman <[email protected] >: > See https://blog.haardiek.org/setup-openvas-as-master-and-slave.html > > > > > > Thijs Stuurman > > Security Operations Center | KPN Internedservices > > [email protected] | [email protected] > > T: +31(0)299476185 <+31%20299%20476%20185> | M: +31(0)624366778 > <+31%206%2024366778> > > PGP Key-ID: 0x16ADC048 (https://pgp.surfnet.nl/) > > Fingerprint: 2EDB 9B42 D6E8 7D4B 6E02 8BE5 6D46 8007 16AD C048 > > > > W: https://www.internedservices.nl | L: http://nl.linkedin.com/in/ > thijsstuurman > > > > *Van:* Openvas-discuss [mailto:[email protected]] > *Namens *[email protected] > *Verzonden:* dinsdag 15 augustus 2017 17:39 > *Aan:* [email protected] > *Onderwerp:* [Openvas-discuss] set up remote scanner. > > > > I want to install OpenVAS on main server (PC#1) and on other machine > (PC#2) install only scanner, then I want to create task from OpenVAS > manager in main server (PC#2) for scanner which installed on PC#2.
