Using NET backend

I'm trying out the "net" backend of the .72 release with a Microtek E3,
Adaptec 2940, and Redhat Linux 5.0. It starts to work (in the "Preview"
dialog of xscanimage); but after what seems like one pass, xscanimage
freezes up. From then on, the scanner is unusable until I reboot. If I
try "scanimage -L", scanimage just hangs until I kill it.

Scanimage works fine if I use the Microtek backend directly. Also, is
there some way to reset the scanner or SCSI card when it locks up like
this? Cycling the power on the scanner doesn't help.

Thanks!
