That is difficult better yet impossible to tell, cause both are used for different purposes, nmap is a quick portscanner, nessus scans for vulnerabilities. Wink

Like stated above these two are totally different, I like nmap a lot because of it's speed and all it's scanning options from the command line, great product.

So there's nothing wrong with having both installed?

Not really, still it makes no sense equipping a sword if you can't wield it...
