I have got it working but i have still a problem to start it automatically. I edit the autorun.sh script for starting de xinetd but it doesn't start at boot. When i start it manaually sane backend server start but it gives still a error. I used the name : admin and for the group : admin . The error comes for the group, Still don't know why but i'm looking for it. FIXED

All what you need is installing Qpkg on your qnap.
then install sane-backends and xinetd, configure it for your network.

you have to configure it also in the same way as for Qnap NAS.
