Hi,
it’s still the same issue as your last topic at

you need to ensure you can connect to the feed.community.greenbone.net server on the rsync port (873).

The feed server is not running a http service. Only rsync. Therefore you can’t connect to ports 443 an 80. You need to try to connect to port 873. See

thanks man!! port blocked in firewall… :grimacing:
… the problem is that i don´t manage the network… and admins allways said “all is open” and it is not obviously.
but u got to show him… I told him that next time I will break a chair on his head… literally!!
i´m not very familiar with linux, and I’ve been in this nonsense for 3 days… :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

thanks a lot!!
