This page is about making Amahi run as a Scanner Server.
Due to the variety of scanners available in the market (standalone, as part of a printer or fax or multifunction systems), some may experience trouble with permissions.
== Preventing permissions issues ==
We want to make the scanner RW for a scanner group, that Apache is a member of and has access to. To do this, start by making a new group:<BR>
su -<br> groupadd -r scanner<BR><BR>
Add apache and root to the new group:<br>
usermod -a -G scanner apache<br> usermod -a -G scanner root<br><br>
Next, we need to tell the system to set the scanner permissions so it uses the new group.
