    Thanks for the info

    the one thing that i wanted to verify is I heard through
    other users that Qualys is a distrbuted solution where the
    reports are all stored at a database at Qualys. This
    allows you to get reports anywhere but I'm not sure what
    value you get from that. I can set up a webserver and
    allow certain users to view the reports.

    Is this true.??
