Re: [hylafax-users] modems & hylafax

I'm also a HylaFax newbie. I just set up a RH 6.2 server with a USR Courier 
v.Everything modem in class 2.0. It tests out OK, both sending and 
receiving but we have not pumped enough faxes through it yet to do a real 
stress test.

I ran into two specific problems in the set up:

1. The faxaddmodem script did not recognize the config/usr-2.0 default set 
up script until I inserted a CONFIG: line that included a regular 
expression that would match the results of the Courier's AT+FMI? command.

2. Once I got the config script right, I could receive faxes but not send 
-- HylaFax said it "could not set up the modem." That was cured by adding

  ModemATCmdDelay:        100

to the config script.
