RE: flexfax: Config Question / flexfax: Switching Modem to Data

[Christoph Scheeder <christoph.scheeder@scheeder.de>]

Hi,
I think you should use ttyS1 not cua1 for acessing your modemdevice,
then tell hylafax whrer the lockfiles should go, and then, if you
acess your modem with your dialoutsoftware hylafax will go transparently out
of the way for you connecting to your ISP. And it will reiinitialise it for Hylafax 
after you terminate your connection automaticaly.
If you use cuax devices for hylafax, it will never notice you are using the modem
other then for hylafax, and faxgetty will try to reinitialise the modem everytime you
try to dial out to your ISP.
I think you run an actual kernel, and therefor there isn't any reason for using the cua device.
Doing so only leads to locking problems.

I didn't find a config.fax file to replace with the one that Gerry sent
us.  There seem to be several directories with configs in them; am I
correct that the actual configs are in /var/spool/fax/etc?

I do have a config.cua1 in there.  I think I told the setup routine
that I was using cua1 as my fax device.  However, I also told it my fax
number, and I see that this is not listed in the config.cua1 file.
