I have an Ubuntu (V7.10) Linux system loaded with a Hewlett Packard C5280 MFP connected, other XP laptops can access the printer fine. The scanner functions work fine on my Linux machine.
I am having a few problems with saned, I have followed the advice in the MAN pages for setting up for network access but for some reason sane is not broadcasting after boot. I have the correct entries in inetrd, saned.conf and services but still no port 6566 shows if I do a local scan. If I run saned from the control line then 6566 shows on a port scan but then drops, if instead of the scan I try a remote connection scan I manage to connect but saned drops as soon as the connection is finished. Below is the output from running saned -d6 the gap is where it pauses waiting for a connection. geoff at challenger:~$ saned -d6 [saned] main: starting debug mode (level 6) [saned] main: trying to get port for service `sane-port' (getaddrinfo) [saned] main: [0] socket () using IPv6 [saned] main: [0] setsockopt () [saned] main: [0] bind () to port 6566 [saned] main: [0] listen () [saned] main: [1] socket () using IPv4 [saned] main: [1] setsockopt () [saned] main: [1] bind () to port 6566 [saned] main: [1] bind failed: Address already in use [saned] main: waiting for control connection [saned] saned (AF-indep+IPv6) from sane-backends 1.0.18-cvs ready [saned] check_host: detected an IPv4-mapped address [saned] check_host: access by remote host: ::ffff:127.0.0.1 [saned] check_host: remote host is IN_LOOPBACK: access granted [saned] init: access granted [saned] init: bad status=22 or procnum=-1079736956 [saned] quit: exiting geoff at challenger:~$ Any ideas what may be wrong appreciated.
