Have any of you used OpenVAS yet?

Just trying not to reinvent the wheel. Thanks gang.

You so funny Chris. I'm just looking to find out what kind of experiences others have had with it. Is it as good or better than Nessus?

i havent messed with it, but i did read some of the mailing lists posts after your post.

looks like it can be a pain to install and you only get the checks the free versions of nessus has.  i'm gonna wait a bit.

Well now I feel like a tard for not reading down the list... I totally missed this post earlier.  *hides his head*  I'd be interested in hearing any thoughts or insights from you who have played around with it as well.
