Thanks. I'm sure that I did not have that set up and will try it tonight. However, I've gone back to Server 1 by now for several reasons. With Server 2, I also had no sound, the PS/2 mouse didn't work, and I didn't like the management interface as well. So it may still be that Server 1 won't work with the USB scanner. The Server manual admits that it may have problems with USB. Getting Server 1.0.6 to run with the 2.6.26 kernel was no simple matter either, but I did succeed with patches I found online.
