[X2go-dev] Does X2GO have support for scanning using a client-side scanner?

[rupi]

Hi,

after a quick look in the saned documentation[1] i think setting up saned
on the clients and usinging sane with the sane-net backend shouldn't be that
hard (though it requires a trusted network environment because there is no
authentication/authorization besides tcp wrapper support..). You may want
to tweak the users environment to set SANE_NET_HOSTS to her/his client pc.

Including tunneling support over ssh in x2go for saned is probably a tricky
thing since sane uses a different tcp connection or control and data plus
it resolves the port exclusivly over services.

But saned on the clients should ease the process for your users.
