[hylafax-users] Newbie doesn't getty fax sent

[Colin McKinnon <colin@wew.co.uk>]

Hi all,

I'm probably doing something really stupid, but I don't seem to be getting 
anywhere with my installation. I've got Linux 2.0.36 (RH5.2) running, and 
installed hylafax from the 4.1 source tarball. Everything seemed to go by 
the book. I started up the server(s) but I can't seem to to send any faxes. 
Initially this was using WHFC (more on that in another post) but also from 
the suppl;ied command line client.

I'd set up my system for outgoing faxes only (I run mgetty on the same port 
for incoming data calls, and also make outgoing data calls on the same 
line). After the install I was left with a file in 
/var/spool/hylafax/etc/config.ttyS0 (shown later). Outgoing faxes are 
getting queued but not sent. I've tried running faxstate (-n ttyS0). But to 
no avail. Here's the response I get when the message gets dropped:

Although mgetty shows up if I do an 'fuser' on /dev/ttyS0, there is no lock 
file, and I can connect to the modem with minicom and pppd no problem. I 
think the problems with WHFC are seperate so I've put them in another post.

Any tips gratefully received,

Colin
