Trying to connect to saned from remote computer on local network. If I start saned manually with the debug option (-d128), I can connect fine via telnet and even use xsane. When I add the proper line to xinetd.conf, I can not connect. I've made the shell script to allow debug mode w/xinetd and output an error file. I have no lines that would block me in hosts.allow/hosts.deny (do they even have any effect when using xinetd?) and I'm not using tcp_wrapper. Not going through a firewall.
CanoScan LiDE 30 Sane 1.0.13 (CVS) Suse 9 the telnet output from the client machine is -------------------------------------------- Trying XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX... Connected to server.local. Escape character is '^]'. Connection closed by foreign host. -------------------------------------------- output from error file is -------------------------------------------- [saned] main: starting debug mode (level 128) [saned] main: trying to get port for service `sane' (getaddrinfo) [saned] main: [0] socket () using IPv6 [saned] main: [0] setsockopt () [saned] main: [0] bind () to port 6566 [saned] main: [0] bind failed: Address already in use [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: couldn't bind an address. Exiting. --------------------------------------------- It's saying that the address is already in use, though when I run it manually (with xinetd shut off) it does not give this message. I'm a bit stumped..... TIA
