[sane-devel] Network scanning permission problem

I have local scanning working via USB on an Epson Artisan 700.  I'm
trying to use xinetd and saned to scan over the network from another
system.  From the client, I get:

$ scanimage -L
device `net:192.168.100.1:epkowa:usb:004:003' is a Epson (unknown
model) flatbed scanner
$ scanimage
scanimage: open of device net:192.168.100.1:epkowa:usb:004:003 failed:
Access to resource has been denied

I've checked the permissions for xinetd and saned and it looks good.
The client user is in the scanner group and the server saned user is
in the scanner group.  Any idea what could be wrong?
