[sane-devel] bind failed: Address already in use

I can't get my saned to start up anymore on my headless server.  It was
scanning in very nicely with my HP C3100 printer / scanner.

I looked around - and this is what's showing up in my syslog


Feb 13 11:44:58 ubuntu saned[22249]: saned (AF-indep+IPv6) from sane-backends 1.0.20 starting up 
Feb 13 11:44:58 ubuntu saned[22249]: do_bindings: [1] bind failed: Address already in use 
Feb 13 11:44:58 ubuntu saned[22249]: do_bindings: [0] bind failed: Address already in use 
Feb 13 11:44:58 ubuntu saned[22249]: do_bindings: couldn't bind an address. Exiting. 
Feb 13 11:44:58 ubuntu saned[22249]: FATAL ERROR; bailing out, waiting for children... 
Feb 13 11:44:58 ubuntu saned[22249]: bail_out: all children exited


After doing some digging, some people mentioned this was due to a
missing entry in my /etc/hosts file - but it seems like everything is
there


127.0.0.1	localhost 
192.168.1.100	ubuntu.local ubuntu

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1     ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts


Any ideas on what to look for?

Thanks,
