I naievely thought that as I had saned.conf that saned was installed, it wasn't.

I downloaded and installed it but still problems.

If in saned.conf I alter the entry

sane-port stream tcp nowait saned.saned /usr/sbin/saned saned and delete the .saned so it 
reads nowait saned then if I do a local port scan then port 6566 shows; it does NOT if I leave 
it as saned.saned.

I get the impression that it may be a user or group problem.
