IIRC, there haven't been found any timing issues in saned in recent years. Using saned changes the timing (and may change buffer sizes etc.). This may reveal problems in the backend or the scanner itsself. I don't say that saned is perfectly free of bugs but it's long time ago that really a saned bug caused a backend to stop working. > http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/sane-devel/2003-May/007640.html Also in that case I think no bug in saned was found. > This seems to be the problem I'm having since the following test works > perfectly: > > #scanimage -x 150 -y 180 -d net:localhost --format pnm > /tmp/outfile.pnm > > ... but locks-up/hangs saned when doing from a remote host: No firewall/packet filter involved? From your first log it really looks like something blocks the data port. If that's not the case, please also check the recent thread about the Umax Astra 2200 network problems and send debug logs as mentioned there. Please try to reproduce the hang when debugging is enabled. Bye, Henning
