Re: [hylafax-users] Distinctive ring & cid looging



Is anyone using HylaFAX to totally ignore incoming voice calls on the primary
number -and- answer (accept) incoming fax calls on the secondary/distinctive
ring number?  If so, is the cid-data from the incoming calls on the
secondary/distinctive ring number getting logged (via syslogd) to the servers
log file?

ServerTracing:          1
SessionTracing:         0xfff
RingsBeforeAnswer:      4               <-- I have tried 2 - 4 with no luck
LogFacility:            daemon
RingFax:                RING1            <-- have tried RING0-4 with no luck
CIDNumber:              "NMBR = "
CIDName:                "NAME = "
