[sane-devel] Can only access scanner(s) as root (long)

[jim.george at blueyonder.co.uk]

Henning,

	thanks I realised earlier what I'd done wrong...I had loclhost and the FQN of
the same host in the net.conf.

	Also I had previously installed saned in /usr and now it was in /usr/local
so it wasn't being found via inetd.

Thanks,

Jim
