Re: [hylafax-users] Send 1 Fax, Then Can Never Receive



Faxgetty tries nothing and it does not complain that it "cannot initilize
modem". One time the modem did not respond to incoming faxes at all!
Today I run into the same problem - since I have this problem everytime I
send a fax out...I had to remove an outgoing fax that was lauched from a
Windows machine using wfhc. I realised that wfhc sent a signal 15 to kill
faxsend...I was surprised to see that this event triggered faxgetty to
respawn and to re-initialize the modem...Interesting...
I was thinking about writing a script to check for eventual lock files
(due to outgoing faxes being processed) and kill faxgetty. Such a script
could be processed by a cron job...It could work, but obviously that's not
the way HylaFAX wad designed..
What do you think?
