But if you used user saned.saned why bash tried to access /root?

The /tmp/saned* files are zero length. The tee never worked form me. Looks like the connection is closed immediately. Try "telnet localhost sane" for testing. If it exits immediately, something is wrong. Otherwise just press return some times. Try "exec /usr/sbin/saned 2> saned.$$.stderr" only. The tee would log the data send from saned to the client which wouldn't be of much use if you don't know the SANE net protocoll very well. > 3) If I try to run as user saned with the nonredirected version of the > above script then the client appears to succeed but no network > scanners are found.

By the way: SANE_DEBUG_NET is only for the clieant, not the server. You could also try to run scanimage -L as user saned and see if there are any permission problems. Bye, Henning
