    When i want to establish admin access when connected to HFAXD via
    telnet, i cannot for i do not know the password. How do i find it and/or
    change it.
    
    I am aware of the "hosts" file in /etc but i guess my question would be
    what is the proper syntax to setup that account and if that file is
    actually used to control accounts for hfaxd?

    please dont bother... i have, maybe i am just missing something.

Read the man page of HylaFAX's hosts(4F) file twice and
carefully; it tells *exactly* where this file is located and
what the syntax for admin accounts is.
