-sane-utils (sane-backends) for Debian
--------------------------------------
-
-This package contains various utilities shipped with sane-backends, among
-which saned, the network scanner daemon used to share scanners over the
-network.
-
-
-saned setup
------------
-
-Please read this file carefully to setup your saned server properly.
-
- -> Setting up permissions for saned
- -> Running saned from inetd
- -> Running saned as a standalone daemon
-
-
- Setting up permissions for saned
- --------------------------------
-
-A saned user and a saned group have been added to your system; it is highly
-recommended to run saned as user and group saned and NEVER EVER as root.
-
-To operate properly, saned must be able to access your scanners; different
-setups are possible, depending on who should be able to use the scanners:
-
- * saned users only:
- => device owned by saned:saned, saned:root or root:saned
-
- * saned users and local users:
- => device owned by saned:scanner, local users added to the scanner group
-
- * local users only:
- => device owned by root:scanner, local users added to the scanner group
-
-By default the saned user is NOT part of the scanner group. If you add the
-saned user to the scanner group, ALL scanners will be made available over the
-network without restrictions. Do that if you do not want/need to restrict one
-or more scanners to local users only.
-
-If you intend to use saned with a USB scanner, note that the permissions for
-USB scanners are handled by udev.
-
-See /usr/share/doc/libsane/README.Debian.gz for more information on setting up
-appropriate permissions.
-
- Running saned from inetd
- ------------------------
-
-To enable saned in the default configuration (running as user and group saned),
-use update-inetd to enable the service:
- # update-inetd --enable sane-port
-To disable saned, use update-inetd to disable the service:
- # update-inetd --disable sane-port
-
-If you want to run saned under another user and/or group, edit /etc/inetd.conf
-and change saned:saned for the appropriate user:group combination.
-
- Running saned as a standalone daemon
- ------------------------------------
-
-When run as a standalone daemon, saned can advertise its services over the
-network, and the SANE clients will automatically discover the saned servers
-(provided the clients support this).
-
-To run saned as a standalone server:
- - if you were previously running saned from inetd, disable it (see above)
- - run dpkg-reconfigure sane-utils
