Yes but there should be the scanner as well! This is the machine where
the scanner is attached or? Have you got /dev/sg0 .. sg7?

Forget about sane-find-scanner before your scanner isnŽt shown here.

There is a net.conf in C:\sane\etc\sane.d or corresponding path in
linux, you should write here the ip-number of the machine where the
scanner is attached.
