flexfax: Hylafax receive errors, faxstat errors, where can I get special files

[ea192 <Werner.Mayer@fen.baynet.de>]

Hi!

My config is as follows:
Hylafax Version v4.0pl1 under Linux 2.0.33;gcc version 2.7.2.1; created
for 
i586-unknown-linux on Sun Nov 30 23:56:08 1997
Distribution form binary via Suse/redhat on CD-ROM Version Suse 5.1
MODEM: TELEJET High Speed FaxModem 28800, HW-J9614F4,
SW-J9614F41-V-FAST, V1.000-DS39 VFC, RC288DPi Rev
05BA                                                   
Rest: take a look at survey database, I registered same time today.

Problem:
Hylafax receives short pages of 60-110 scan lines, then waits for the
sender to end transmission.
60 lines are about 1 cm of Fax on an A4 sized paper sheet.
Modem: rcv-light lights up for first reception package, light goes off,
reception noise goes on til end 
of reception; then end negotiation and regular end of fax transmission
notification, that all went well.

Normally modem rcv-light lights up on package reception, goes off for
shortly write to disk (end of packet),
then goes on again, then off, and so on til end of fax negotiation with
fax sender. 

Modem cabling is ok, modem works fine when run under MD-DOS with MS-DOS
fax software.
Device /dev/ttyS1 isn't used by other system resources than Hylafax.

Here follows log specific data of two different files:
File 1:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Next problem: I get following errors:
This is the contents of my fax etc/hosts file:
localhost
127.0.0.1

When using faxstat, I'm asked for a password. nevertheless what I do, it
denies access:
faxstat
Password:
Login failed: 500 'PASS ': Syntax error, expecting password.

It even denies access to account fax and uucp. I'm using standard
account file names.
Some other commands have similar responses.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Last question:
Where can I get files like viewfax and other fax viewer programs
suitable for Hylafax?

Hope to get answers soon via personal mail


Bye, Werner.
