Steps to perform to install Inprotect.


I. Setup console
1. Copy content of html directory to your webserver directory, where you want to have Inprotect installed.
2. Create and populate database.
3. Edit configuration files for passwords, etc.
4. Run updateplugins.pl to populate database with Nessus plugins
5. Modify cron to run sched.pl every minute.
6. Login to the web console as user - Admin, and password - password.
7. Setup new Nessus server using web interface.
	Hint:
	You may specify IP address of each Nessus server as 127.0.0.1
	and run Nessusd on loopback interface only.
8. Configure a new database user, granting him remote access to the Inprotect database, SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE (CREATE will be also needed if you run updateplugins.pl as the same database user)

	!!! EACH NESSUS SERVER MUST HAVE A UNIQUE ID !!!
4. Modify inprotect.cfg file to set proper database parameters, IP, database name, username, password. 
5. Setup cron to run nessus_run.pl every minute

Repeat steps for each new scanner server
IMPORTANT - DO NOT FORGET TO CHANGE SERVERID VALUE IN inprotect.cfg FILE

Enjoy distributed vulnerability testing...
Lots of new bugs...
Opportunities...

Detail installation, configuration and usage documentation must be developed.
