Re: [hylafax-users] Installation of 4.1

[Malcolm Candlish <bm@candlish.uklinux.net>]

Dear Pedro,

Thank you for your communication.

I ran 'faxaddmodem' as you suggested and all seemed to go smoothly. at the end it stated:-
saving current file as /var/spool/fax/etc/config.ttyS1.sav
Checking ..  for consistency ... everything looks OK.
Don't forget to run faxmodem or configure init to run faxgetty on ttyS1

The faxgetty line in /etc/inittab is as follows:-
t1:23:respawn:/var/sbin/faxgetty ttyS1

There appears to be no directory for /var/sbin at all!

faxstat states as follows:-
HylaFAX scheduler on localhost.localdomain: Running 

Thank you for your interest, I am really very gratefull for your kind help.

Malcolm Candlish.
