RE: flexfax: Need a point in the right direction (solved)

Hi,

Setting -o for hfaxd will only change the port that the server listens on.
There seems to be no
similar run time parameter for client programs. In /etc/services there only
seemed to be an
entry for "hylafax 4559" but no entry for the old protocol port at 4557.  So
I'm not sure, other
than a recompile, how a client would know the old port number had been
re-assigned.

Regards,

dan
