Hello,<br>
<br>
I am trying to convert a WD MyBook into a scanner server. Sane detects<br>
the scanner and I was able to scan, but I cannot get scanbd to work.<br>

May this be related to the fact that I am using a *very* old udev<br>
version (0.125-7+lenny3) which cannot be upgraded?<br>

<br></div>
On Lenny you should try usind hal instead of udev. But this is only resonsible for detecting removable devices. As a fallback scanbd can be signaled (using some udev-rule, e.g.), please check the docu.<br><div class="im">

Check the debug<br>

First of all scanbd doesn't detect any scanner. There may be various reasons. But most likely scanbd uses a wrong dll.conf.<br>
