RE: Error message - unable to exec /usr/sbin/faxsend ??



I am running RH5.1 and am also getting an email telling me:

"unable to exec /usr/sbin/faxsend"

The permissions on this file are "-rwxr-xr-x".  I am issuing this
command from the server logged in as root:

"sendfax -n -d 5555656 /etc/test.txt"

One other possible hint is that when I do a faxstat -a It tells me that
the scheduler service is running, but it does not tell me the status of
the modem.  I noticed in all the doc's that doing a faxstat with several
of the option flags will also give the status of the modem.  Could this
be a symptom of a problem that is also keeping my faxsend from working?

Mmmm, I just noticed this (I had missed it due to misinterpreting the
line-wrappings).  On my system the permissions are "-rwxr-xr-x".  Have
you tried it that way?
