I'm working on a project that will allow me to schedule Nessus scans through a web interface. The only thing I've come across that will allow me to do this in an open source product called Inprotect. (www.inprotect.com) If anyone knows of a different open source product to do this, please let me know.

Here's my current problem. I'm keen on nessus and most of linux (still learning), but Inprotect requires the installation and configuration of mysql, perl scripts,php and apache. I've worked a little with apache, php, and mysql, but I don't know them very well. Most of the work I've done with them has been through instructions on how to install stuff. I haven't had time to dig in and learn them well. Instructions I've found on Inprotect's site and google are not very helpful to someone with my knowledge. They assume I know a lot of the prerequisites. Does anyone have a good resource, papers, or instructions on how to setup Inprotect. Any help would be awesome.

Thanks!!!
