get nbe report format from '.nessus' data

[Brian Spindel]

Once I have completed a scan using the newest NessusClient, the results save in '.nessus' format by default. Is there a way to convert those results to the '.nbe' format? I've tried reopening the .nessus results in the NessusClient and exporting to .nbe, but that approach does not appear to work. No results appear in the Report window when I reopen the .nessus file.

Thanks, Brian

Yes, while viewing a report, click on the "Export" button in the
upper-right, select "NBE (*.nbe)" for the Save as type, and then supply
a file name.

Did you save the report before you exited Nessus Client? If so, open it
(File, Open pull-down menu item), select the Report tab, and then the
scan report of interest from the pull-down box in the center-right of
the screen. Now you should be able to export the results as I described
above.
