After a reboot it works without running the daemon .... strange ...
did you reboot after installing autoscan?

yep, I did a reboot ala rootsh reboot and also a power off from the menu, and still getting the same error

same error when starting the daemon or the connection error in the wizard?

Maybe there's a problem with root mode. I use the becomeroot package and you have rootsh.

I had to reboot the N800 for it to work.
Running from command line produced no Hildon interface, running from the icon worked fine.
OS2008 newest SSU (sept)

Hrm, using rootsh here could cause a problem as the person using rootsh used it to invoke a shell and it doesn't set variable properly. Use the command root instead. I'm going to remove the shell spawning feature of rootsh and make the user run root instead of rootsh.

I could swear it wasn't in the Extras menu before, but it is now, and it works. I was able to scan my home network. I have not tried starting/stopping the daemon, but I see no reason to now.

I saved a Network, exited, opened AutoScan and tried to Restore it but the "Open file" dialog is unresponsive. There's also some GUI weirdness with 2 Cancel buttons (the Save dialog was weird as well).

ok I tried as root under /usr/sbin execute autoscan-network-daemon and got the following error:

autoscan-network-daemon: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.0.9.7: cannont open shared object: No such file or directory

seems like some lib si missing, tried to look for a package in gronmayer but got no result. Someone has it?

K just found the package in Pack Rat's site, gonna reboot see how it goes...

All you have to do is:
ln -s /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.7 instead of installing anything

cool, working like a charm, gave me a few errors when started the deamon but autoscan is working and a scan to the LAN Im in took like a minute and a half. Thnx qwerty12 and bongo for the help
