Well, I have had it up and working for about 1 week. I had trouble with an
older version (0.7something) but the current version worked without any real
drama. I have a Mustek scanner so on the server I edited /etc/sane.d/:

net.conf
saned.conf
dll.conf
mustek.conf

On the clients I just edited net.conf. Oh, I also added a line to
/etc/services and adjusted the permissions for the device pointed to by
/dev/scanner.

To scan I can type:

scanimage -d net:HOSTNAME:mustek:/dev/scanner > /tmp/test.pnm

and it just does it's thing.

Exactly what problem are you having? Does it work from the machine where
the scanner is attached?
