[sane-devel] [dev] net backend and timing problems? (pretty weird)

Hi!

The problem here is, my net backend just doesn't crash, no matter what i
do :(


I'd say this is the old "scan over localhost" problem. Anyway, I've
rewritten parts of the net backend (basically adding lot's of DBG, some
checks again NULL pointers and I've changed parts of the auth functions
to avoid information leaks)

Please try this backend with SANE_DEBUG_NET=128 and send me the output...

regards
