Re: [hylafax-users] ODD



Thanks Jay,
I think I have resolved the problem. ( A beginners fault).
I write to the list the resolution just in case it can be usefull to any
one.

In file /var/spool/fax/etc/config.ttyS1
As I have to dial througth a pbx I have to dial 0 before.

I had in this file:
ModemDialCmd:           ATDT0,%s@

My problem was the @ for pause.
I removed the @ and the faxes started to enter in the fax machine.


Thanks

Victor
