[sane-devel] TWAIN SANE bug report

[Jeremy Malcolm]

Hello,

I am trying to use the net backend on Mac OS X, which uses a 
proprietary Samsung SCX-4100 backend on a Linux machine.  When I run 
"scanimage -L" on the Mac with debugging enabled, it correctly shows me 
the scanner that is shared on my remote machine (after pausing at 
"add_device: adding backend" for a very long time), but 
"SANE_DEBUG_NET=128 scanimage > test.pnm" gives me an error:

[sanei_wire] sanei_w_array: DECODE: maximum amount of allocated memory 
exceeded (limit: 1048576, new allocation: 3180390528, total: 3181439104 
bytes)
[net] sane_get_devices: ignoring rpc-returned status Unknown SANE 
status code 1768846189
Segmentation fault

My server is running Debian Linux with sane 1.0.13, and I can scan 
locally on that server using SANE.  I have tried using the test backend 
on the server instead of my real scanner's backend, and then it works 
on the Mac.

I can't get any help out of Samsung for this.  I would be grateful for 
any help from this list.
