The client says that it is out of memory. It shouldn't be since
there's lots of free mem available. The same thing happens, if
I try scanimage -d net:192.168.0.1 -t on the server.
Can it be a bug?

I guess, that's exactly what YaST does, but it doesn't handle the
answer properly ...

As above, out of memory. Nothing more, nothing in /var/log/messages

/dev/usbscanner is owned by root:saned and has rw-rw---- set. saned runs
as saned:saned. Is there anything I missed?


Bye,
