I'm assuming you are happy that your client's config is OK but just in case... /etc/sane.d/dll.conf has "net" uncommented and /etc/sane.d/net.conf has the IP address of the server. BTW if you want to use your scanner from a windoze box, there is a port of xsane [ http://www.xsane.org ] which is useful if you are running the windows version of The Gimp (they integrate nicely). For other things, try SaneTwain [ http://sanetwain.ozuzo.net/ ]. I find it works nicely from PaintShop, but bombs if I try to use it from MS Office apps (surprised - not!)
