    Hylafax v4.0pl1 under Linux 2.0.28: ZyXEL 2864i with 2.08 firmware
    
    
    I have problems to receive faxes. The provided config file did not work
    for me; so I changed the ModemResetCmds until it worked.

Newer firmware versions of the ZyXEL Elite 2864I have the bug
not supporting the command "AT*F0" (deny remote configuration).
This should be removed from the ModemResetCmds's and the
value

ModemResetCmds: AT&B1&N0&S0S18=4S38.3=1

works fine.
    
    When I set S0=2 I get the follwing log file:

If you set the register S0 to 2 the 2864I will itself answer
the call after the second RING (which will not work with
HylaFAX). Don't add S0=2 to the ModemResetCmds or a profile.

    Hylafax does not receive the fax. The modem keeps ringing.
    
    
    What is the correct setting of S0?

The correct setting if S0 is 0 (e.g. HylaFAX's faxgetty(1M) should
answer the call with an ATA command). Don't write another value into
one of the profiles.
    
    When I took the S0 setting out of the profile, I was not able to set it
    with the ModemResetCmd. Where is the proper place to set this registers?

Please check the settings of the MSN in your 2864I. You must
assign the MSN for the internal fax/modem with AT&ZI6=3504288
to inform the 2864I which protocol should be used answering
the call if faxgetty(1M) issues the ATA command and which
port gets the RING messages. You could also add
an &L1 to the above ModemResetCmd to indicate that the
internal build-in fax/modem has a higher priority to answer
a voice-band call that the a/b adapter. 

If this does not help you out please show a complete server
tracing (set the value of serverTracing: to 0x0f to see the
modem-AT-dialog) and your modem-config file (but please
run the tests with a profile containing S0=0).
