[hylafax-users] Faxing from Samba
Hi,
I'm trying the "Fax from Samba" config found 
on the Hylafax website, but it's not working. 
I'm using RedHat 7.1,and Hylafax 4.1beta3-1rh7. 
 I've followed the instructions for setting this up 
closely.
 It does fax with the various Windows clients,ie Cypheus 
etc..  
 I can log into the Samba share(from NT) and load an Apple 
printer driver.
* When I've created a fax in Word and printed to the 
postscript printer I get   
* a message saying "problem with the printer, try 
to reload the driver" blah 
* blah blah..
Thanks for any help you can 
give.

Below is my 
Printcap.local:
faxlp:\
     
:lp=/dev/null:\
     
:sd=/usr/sbin/lpd:\    ;I changed this from /usr/spool to 
/usr/sbin to match where my lpd is.
     
:if=/var/spool/fax/bin/sambafax:\
     :sh:sf:mx#0:
