If you run saned from inetd or xinetd (please read the inetd(8) or xinetd(8) manual pages or have a look a their Wikipedia entries for what these daemons do), the usual setup refers to a sane-port "service" in their configuration file, the number of which service is normally defined in /etc/services. BTW, all of this is also documented in the saned(8) manual page, pointed to in the comment itself and the documentation for the files mentioned, which the comment points you to as well, and only a quick search engine request away.
