Thanks to Lee Howard who solved my problem with the following advice.
 

Using RedHat, right?  Okay, go to the HylaFAX ftp site:
ftp://ftp.hylafax.org and grab the hylafax-4.1beta2-5rh6.i386.rpm file.
Go to the RedHat website and get the libtiff-3.5.5 RPMs.
install all of this, and if it give dependency issues about ghostscript
5.50 then get that, too.

Unless you're compiling CVS or a patched source for 4.1beta2, HylaFAX will
not work natively with libtiff-3.5.x.  This RPM is the only other way to
get HylaFAX working with libtiff-3.5.x.  If you want to use your current
HylaFAX installation, then downgrade your libtiff to 3.4.x.

Hi All,

I'm using Redhat 6.1 with a USR V34 sportster modem.

when a fax comes in a connection seems to be made but

then the program appears to hang and nothing is written to

the directory where faxes are written.

These are my log and configuration files.

any help will be appreciated.
