Hi again,

I tried to install hylafax-4.1beta2-5rh6.i386.rpm on my intel machine
running RedHat 6.1, but it requires a libtiff of 3.5-5 or higher, which is
only available for RedHat 6.2.  So, I installed
hylafax-4.1beta1-1rh6.i386.rpm instead without problem (well, I did have
to download mawk, but besides that it went pretty well).

I got the usual non-fatal errors about not having /bin/vgetty and
/bin/egetty.

I added t2:23:respawn:/usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyS1 to /etc/inittab

output from faxstat -s still looks encouraging:

root@linccid /root]# faxstat -s
HylaFAX scheduler on linccid.hq.essensys.com: Running
Modem ttyS1 (1.412.931.5425): Running and idle

JID  Pri S  Owner Number       Pages Dials     TTS Status

Any ideas?


output from ps auxw/egrep fax:
