configuring sane-1.00

Hi,

I mentioned this problem in an earlier message. I know that it seems
to be a simple permissions problem, but I can't seem to solve it. I'm
hoping that somebody on this list has some insight.

OS=FreeBSD 3.1-Stable
SCSI Card=Adaptec 2940 (no U, no W)
Machine=P133
Scanner=UMAX 610S

I've installed sane 1.00. I seems to work fine, except that I cannot
get any user other than root to recognize the scanner I have
on the SCSI bus. The scanner is at /dev/pass3 (actual device).

I made a group called "scanner" and set the pass3 device to this
group. I then set the permissions to group read write execute.
Finally, I put the users I want to access the scanner in the "scanner"
group. Still, I see no scanner for any of these users. Any ideas?

Thanks,
A.
