Well, I just installed linux-2.4.9 and also recompiled HylaFAX-4.1
under this kernel.  The same strange problem occurs.

If it helps, the error message from faxqclean is:

hylafax/spool: Can not change directory: Permission denied.

The permissions were set by HylaFAX itself using "make install."

But anyway, I am going to use the Mandrake Cooker version
of HylaFAX.  After installing their latest RPM, this strange
problem does *not* occur.

I would, however, prefer to compile my own stuff.
