I have chosen “root” and “toor” consecutively. Choose your username and password as per your choice. Once the client certificate is successfully created as shown above, once again check the setup by typing command “ openvas-check-setup“. This time it will ask you to create a user as shown below. This will create a client certificate for the Openvas manager. Type the command “ openvas-mkcert-client -n -i“. It will prompt you the next command to run. Once again, type command “ openvas-check-setup“.
The process will run and end as shown below. Type the command “ openvas-nvt-sync” as shown below. You can see below underlined what our next command is. When the certificate is successfully created, once again type command “ openvas-check-setup” to check the next step in the process. The certificate will end like as shown below. This will create an openvas ssl certificate as shown in the below two images. As shown below, we will get a error and the “fix” to fix that error just below it.Īs shown in the “fix” above, type command “ openvas-mkcert”. Simple in the sense that it will automatically give the fix for the errors we face in configuring Openvas. The good thing about installation of Openvas is it is very simple. We will use this command many times from now. Open terminal and type command “ openvas-check-setup“. We just need to configure it to make it available for vulnerability scanning.
Openvas is installed by default in Kali Linux. You should already have observed that Nessus is not installed by default in Kali Linux( see here if you are looking how to install Nessus in Kali Linux). As you already know, OpenVAS is a vulnerability scanner which replaced Nessus vulnerability scanner in Kali Linux. Today our howto is about how to setup OpenVAS in Kali Linux or Kali Linux Sana for that matter.
