 First, verify that GVM is running and configured properly by running ```gvm-start```. If no errors are displayed, ensure that you can login to the web UI at https://127.0.0.1:9390. If there are any errors displayed, Sn1per may not be able to communicate with GVM properly. Run ```gvm-check-setup``` to check your setup again.
 
+Run the following command to update the permissions:
+```sudo chmod 777 /var/run/gvm/gvmd.sock```

 **NOTE:** This integration requires GVM 21.x and a valid Sn1per Professional v10.0 or higher to work properly. 
 
 To integrate GVM 21.x vulnerability scans into Sn1per Professional v10.0 or higher, create a copy of the default Sn1per configuration template (```cp -vf /sniper/conf/default /sniper/conf/gvm_vulnerability_scan.conf```) and enter the appropriate values for the following:

 **NOTE:** You will need to specify a local (non-root) Linux account to initiate GVM 21.x scans using Sn1per by updating the "OPENVAS_RUNAS_USER" setting in your Sn1per configuration file.
 
+To test your setup, run the following commands:
+```
+su - $OPENVAS_RUNAS_USER # Where $OPENVAS_RUNAS_USER is the non-root Linux account you setup 
+gvm-cli socket --xml "<get_version/>"
+```
+
+This will prompt for your OpenVAS username and password. Once entered, it should display the following:
+```
+Enter username: admin
+Enter password for admin: 
+<get_version_response status="200" status_text="OK"><version>21.4</version></get_version_response>
+```
+
 After the settings have been updated to match your environment, you can initiate an OpenVAS scan automatically by running a "normal" or "vulnscan" mode in Sn1per Professional and specifying the new configuration template you just created (ie. /sniper/conf/gvm_vulnerability_scan.conf). This can also be done from the command line by running the following:
