Hi, thanks for looking at my problem.

okey

Before, I just had the following for hosts.hfaxd:

localhost
127.0.0.1

Now I have (after running faxadduser):

localhost
127.0.0.1
jfm:1000:CdYMPcdzLqVqM:pwfuc8g2cfp32

However, I still get:

bash-2.05a$ faxstat
Login failed: 530 User jfm access denied.

The perms on hosts.hfax are 0600 and the file is owned by uucp which on 
here is a synonym for fax. The user fax is defined.

I'm still drawing a blank. Any more clues/pointers?

(btw if i manage to get this going, i *will* write a how-to for this 
platform!!!!)
