Um, yes, that what I do -- my posting was not clear in this point.

Once again the problem:
- Running saned -d from a terminal window: everything is fine.
- saned started from xinetd: I can't scan or aquire a preview. I even
tried it with a wrapper script in several variations; the error
remains. 

When I call saned -d from this wrapper skript, I can't even connect
(which tells me that this is indeed not the solution ;-). Wenn I try
something like saned 2>>/var/log/saned.log, the log file stays empty!

I really guess it is the cleartext status message sent to the client
which causes the error.

CU,

Jörg
