Hi James,

There could be several reasons why you're returning that warning output. Please take a look at some common troubleshooting tips:

  1. Ensure the target host isn't in hibernation mode
  2. Ensure there are no Firewalls blocking access to this target
  3. It could be related to a timeout issue. You can improve this by increasing the network timeout under Advanced -> General -> Performance Options during scan setup. In addition, you can adjust the variable @SEARCH_PATHS@ found in the audit. By default the audit will crawl the entire filesystem during detection which may cause timeout issues on large filesystems. This is highlighted in more detail in the README file.

If you're still experiencing this issue you may want to open a ticket with support in order for us to debug further. Thanks.
