GVM 11 Install


Using the following site as my guide, I installed GVM with these commands:

sudo apt install postgresql
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mrazavi/gvm
sudo apt install gvm

#Update data.  If this fails check your firewall! IDS/IPS can stop these files #due to signature false positives!

greenbone-nvt-sync
sudo greenbone-scapdata-sync
sudo greenbone-certdata-sync

The default username/password:

Username: admin
Password: admin

Verify everything is running:

systemctl status ospd-openvas # scanner
systemctl status gvmd # manager
systemctl status gsad # web ui

Edit the config to allow access from another host (default only allows localhost)

sudo nano /etc/default/gsad

change the ip to 0.0.0.0 to listen on all addresses!

reload the web interface after updating the IP:
sudo systemctl restart gsad
