Re: [hylafax-users] storing faxes?



I am not using anything so grandiose as you propose, but I keep our faxes
for one week. I believe HylaFAX has something run from cron which cleans
house on a regular basis, removes old stuff from recvq/,and if you didn't
run that your received faxes would remain in recvq/ until /var/ filled up. I
just run a shell script from cron that tars up every days stuff and move it
to a new directory, and rotate out the tar ball that's a week old. I suppose
that if you were determined enough you could figure out a sql database
storage technique, but I haven't had the desire or time.

Subject: [hylafax-users] storing faxes?


my boss reqested that i find some way of storing incoming faxes for an
unknown amount of time. i wondering if this is already built in to
hylafax. im thinking it would be nice to have it tar.gz the incoming fax
and store it into some kind of sql database, and then print it out to the
printer.

anyone doing this? or somthing better?
