Re: [hylafax-users] Dial 9 prefix and Toronto 416 10-digit/905 area coderules

["Oliver Wilcock" <owilcock@mea.on.ca>]

To dial a prefix 9 I use the following line as the last entry in the 
DialString rules in the configuration file: /var/spool/fax/etc/dialrules 

^.*$            = 9,&           ! ojw0000 dial 9 first 


DialString := [ 
!... - other rules 
^.*$            = 9,&           ! ojw0000 dial 9 first 
] 

On a related note (this will be of use to only a few people), here are 
long distance dialing rules for the 416 10-digit dialing area code 
(Toronto).  Rules for 905 are tricky. 
I require from the users that they input numbers in the form +1AAAEEE1234 
except for the 905 area code which can be specified with or without +1. 
Maybe someday when I figure out these dialrules I won't require the +1.

        Subject:        [hylafax-users] Where to specify the the extension 
number?



I finally finished running through the faxsetup and faxmodem on my RedHat
7.1 machine. Since my server is primarily for sending out fax (receiving 
is
handled by our fax machine) and I am testing the setup, I have to dial 9 
to
get an outside line. But during the whole configuration process, I did not
find anywhere to specify this 9. Would you please give me a hint?

BTW, which one the best free window 9x/NT/2000 client to work with HylaFax
on my linux machine.

Thanks

Bing
