I am trying to install OpenVAS9 on Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS (clean installation).

Problem:
After the sudo apt install openvas9 I need to sync all the stuff from openvas (see Install Guide or the STDOUT during openvas installation).
To sync the data I have to call:
sudo greenbone-nvt-sync
sudo greenbone-scapdata-sync
sudo greenbone-certdata-sync

I have set the RSYNC_PROXY and http/https proxy variables because we are using a proxy in our network.

When running greenbone-nvt-sync the first time, anything works fine. But calling greenbone-scapdata-sync after fails. Even if I try to call greenbone-nvt-sync two times in a row, the second call fails.

The Error Message:

bad response from proxy -- HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden
rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(128) [Receiver=3.1.1]

My question: Does I have to mind something? Am I doing anything wrong?

Thanks in advance!

I am not quite sure, but according to the log

bad response from proxy -- HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden

I guess, your proxy forbids certain ports that rsync relies on.
