I didn't think of that possibility. But it limits you to X Window. So if you run a Mac, you need X Window on there. The same with Windows. Also the server needs at least the X Window libs installed. So you can call it a bit of overhead. Also, Sane-twain on windows makes a saned scanner accessible as a twain plugin for every win app that supports twain. I get your point though. If you already run X Window, then that might be the easiest solution for you. But if you have an office with windows machines, saned can give you much more. -- Marcel Pol Linux 2.4.21-pre2.1mdk-ringworld.2, up 1 day, 6:17 Registered User #163523
