Not really important, but the sane serveice port is not in
/etc/services (see man saned).

That means inetd/xinetd is running and seems to know about the SANE
port.

The netbackend got a wrong (or no) answer after his request. Maybe the
path in (x)inetd.conf for saned on the server is wrong?

Check /var/log/messages for messages from inetd and saned.
