Hi All,

Fedora 27

$ rpm -qa sane\*
sane-backends-1.0.27-9.fc27.x86_64
sane-backends-drivers-scanners-1.0.27-9.fc27.x86_64
sane-backends-drivers-cameras-1.0.27-9.fc27.i686
sane-backends-libs-1.0.27-9.fc27.i686
sane-backends-daemon-1.0.27-9.fc27.x86_64
sane-backends-drivers-scanners-1.0.27-9.fc27.i686
sane-backends-libs-1.0.27-9.fc27.x86_64
sane-backends-drivers-cameras-1.0.27-9.fc27.x86_64

What I am trying to do is to allow everyone of
   192.168.255.0/24   and
   127.0.0.1

to access saned

as such I have /etc/sane.d/saned.conf (comments removed):

192.168.255.0/24
127.0.0.1

Have I done things correct so far?

Confusion:  in the saned man page, it states:

    FILES
       /etc/hosts.equiv
           The  hosts listed in this file are permitted to
           access all local SANE devices.  Caveat: this
           file imposes serious security risks and its
           use is not recommended.

No fooling not recommended!

Why do I need hosts.equiv to allow access to all SANE
devices?  I though I just did that in saned.conf?

Yours in confusion,
-T
