In this tutorial I will try to explain how to install and configure OpenVAS 4 on Ubuntu lucid 10.04 x64.
This guide is related to OpenVAS 4 from sources, so we will compile all packets needed to our setup
Step 1: Download and install required dependencies for Ubuntu lucid 10.04 x64
Open the terminal and run the following:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libpcap-dev libgpgme11-dev uuid-dev doxygen libgnutls-dev bison libglib-dev flex cmake pkg-config build-essential xmltoman sqlite3 libsqlite3-dev libxml2-dev libxslt-dev rpm fakeroot alien
Step 2: Download sources and patches
Create a setup directory to download, extract and compile all the sources. We need the following packages:
OpenVAS Libraries 4.0.7
OpenVAS Scanner 3.2.5
OpenVAS Manager 2.0.4
OpenVAS Administrator 1.1.2
OpenVAS Command Line Interface 1.1.4
Greenbone Security Assistant 2.0.1
Greenbone Security Desktop 1.2.1
OpenVAS Check Setup script
libmicrohttpd-0.9.9 (we need it due a bug in Ubuntu 10.04)
