Ok, did that.

Did that too.  Now I got a new error message, but I think it is good (good
because I think it means I've made some progress with your help!).
Anyhow, here's what happened:

[root@linccid /root]# faxstat -s
HylaFAX scheduler on linccid.hq.essensys.com: Running
Modem ttyS1 (1.412.931.5425): Running and idle
[root@linccid /root]# sendfax -n -d 99315425 /home/toki/fdot.list 
/usr/sbin/textfmt: No font metric information found for "Courier-Bold".
Usage: /usr/sbin/textfmt [-1] [-2] [-B] [-c] [-D] [-f fontname] [-F
fontdir(s)] [-m N] [-o #] [-p #] [-r] [-U] [-Ml=#,r=#,t=#,b=#] [-V #]
files... >out.ps
Default options: -f Courier -1 -p 11bp -o 0
Error converting data; command was "/usr/sbin/textfmt -B -f Courier-Bold	
-Ml=0.4in -p 11 -s default >/tmp//sndfaxfARh6j </home/toki/fdot.list"

Note that fdot.list is just a text file.

Any ideas?

Thanks for your help,

Toki Barron
