flexfax: Flexfax problem

[ferenc cserei <feri@hdsys.hu>]

Please help.

I'm uing Flexfax 4.0 pl1 on AIX 4.1.4. Sometimes modems lose connections 
with the server and I cant find a way to restart a modemconnection.
I've tried killing the faxgetty process, removing lock files etc. 
Faxstat always says : Initializing modem, and then Waiting for modem to 
come ready.
I've used rc.local to hack faxgetty into inittab, but it doesn't seems 
to work.

Thanks

the telinit file:

# Hack to get faxgetty into inittab
num_faxgetty=`ps -ef | grep faxgetty | wc -l`
if [ $num_faxgetty -eq 1 ]; then
        /etc/chitab "tty0:2:respawn:/usr/local/sbin/faxgetty /dev/tty0"
        /etc/chitab "tty1:2:respawn:/usr/local/sbin/faxgetty /dev/tty1"
        sleep 2 ; telinit q
fi


the inittab file: 

tty0:2:respawn:/usr/local/sbin/faxgetty /dev/tty0
tty1:2:respawn:/usr/local/sbin/faxgetty /dev/tty1
