Scanner of Same local machine #41

we had configured the php scanner server but it was detecting the scanner connected to the server only it was not detecting the scanner attached with the local machine. How can we configure it to accept the scanner in the local machine

Please read everything above "Web interface:" in the 1st post of this thread https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1519201 since you are trying to add a remote scanner treat the system running the web GUI as the client for this part

My issue is the php scanner server application was hosted in remote location and i need to use the same php scanner server web interface in my local machine and the scanner was attached with my local machine.

Both the Scanner server application and the local machine, scanner are in different region with different IP range

Are theses stand alone scanners? if they are high end they may support a saned share, if not you can use a raspberry pi https://github.com/GM-Script-Writer-62850/PHP-Scanner-Server/wiki/Ways-to-hook-a-scanner-up

now the instructions are for a single subnet max size of 253 clients max, if if you use lets say 10.0.0.0/16 or 192.168.0.0/16 instead of 192.168.1.0/24, that should give you a ip range of 10.0.*. or `192.168..*` you could use 10.0.0.0/8 (you can not do that with the 192 network) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_network edit: I do not know why i did not think of this sooner, you could instead just use the IP of the scanner(s) instead of defining a range (if you are using static IPs)
