that is absolutely OK. OpenVAS has no option to run without SSL.
The SSL switch in the client is only available for compaibility with
Nessus which allow for unencrypted use.

Perhaps we should simply remove this option. Unencrypted connection
has no real use-case IMHO. Other opinions?

on which operating system (and which version, any other
special things) did you try this?

What does the log files of  openvasd say?
