   I'm using OpenBSD, not using Linux. :)  Sorry, should've made a 
point of that.

   Faxgetty's line in /etc/ttys looks like this:  (I've included the 
entry for tty00 as a reference)

#name	getty				type	status
tty00	"/usr/libexec/getty std.9600"	unknown off
tty01	"/usr/local/sbin/faxgetty"	unknown	on

   In /var/spool/fax/etc/config.tty01, I can guess it should be either:

GettyArgs:	"unknown %l"

   ..or:

GettyArgs:	"std.%s %l"

   I was wondering if the modem (USR Sportster 14400, Class 1 only: 
yes I know...) needs to support adaptive answer or be set on or have 
+FCLASS set a particular way for answering/idling.

   Right now, its set as follows:

ModemSetupAACmd:	AT+FCLASS=0
ModemAnswerCmd:		AT+FCLASS=1A

   I have some doubts as to +FCLASS=1A, but, hey, that's what the 
config script suggests.
