<title>Introduction to SANE</title>

<para><application>SANE</application> is short for Scanner Access Now Easy.
|
|
Scanner access, however, is far from easy, since every vendor has their own
|
|
protocols. The only known protocol that should bring some unity into this
|
|
chaos is the TWAIN interface, but this is too imprecise to allow a stable
|
|
scanning framework. Therefore, <application>SANE</application> comes with
|
|
its own protocol, and the vendor drivers can't be used.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><application>SANE</application> is split into back ends and front
|
|
ends. The back ends are drivers for the supported scanners and cameras. The
|
|
front ends are user interfaces to access the backends.</para>

drivers, a parallel port scanner needs parallel port support (you should

use enhanced EPP modes) and perhaps <ulink

<title>Configuration and setup of the 'saned' daemon</title>
|
|
|

<para>The <command>saned</command> daemon is not meant to be used for

|
untrusted clients. You should provide <xref linkend="tcpwrappers"/>
|

and/or <xref linkend="fw-firewall"/> protection to insure only trusted
|
|
clients access the daemon. Due to the complex security requirements to
|
|
insure only trusted clients access the daemon, BLFS does not provide
|
|
instructions to configure the <command>saned</command> daemon. If you
|
|
desire to make the daemon available, ensure you provide adequate
|
|
security, configure your <filename>[x]inetd.conf</filename> file and
|
|
send a <userinput>SIGHUP</userinput> to the [x]inetd daemon. Some good
|
|
information for setting up and securing the <command>saned</command>
|
|
daemon can be found at
