[hylafax-users] modem on /dev/ttyM1a appears wedged

[Joseph Blavatt <jblavatt@dynamictechnology.com>]

Hello All,
 I have recently set up a HylaFax server. I'm using a MultTech ISI5634 
multimodem (4 modems, PCI card) in a Compaq 1600R server. Red Hat 7.2 is 
the OS. It's been running pretty well except for a couple of minor 
problems.

One, is the message in the subject line. Looks like the first modem in the 
multimodem card is stuck. This happens pretty much on a regular basis. The 
only way I can clear it is to restart the server. All the other modems 
never jam so any incoming fax's just skip the first modem and get 
processed. I get the usual email message warning me of this. It say's;

 The HylaFAX software thinks that there is a problem with the modem
on device /dev/ttyM1a that needs attention; repeated attempts to
initialize the modem have failed.

Consult the server trace logs for more information on what is happening.

I cannot seem to find the trace log.


The second concern is with writing the "faxrcvd" script correctly so that 
it prints fax's immediately. I have a simple script line that does this but 
it took me about 20 hours and 100 restarts to come up with one that works. 
Any examples of this in any of the documentation from hylaFax or anywhere 
does not work. Mind you, I'm not bitching. I have really enjoyed putting 
this together and making it work. Now I would like to really tweak it and 
get as much out of it as possible. I have yet to use this in reverse where 
my clients can send out fax's. Before I do that I want to work out the 
minor bugs. I have enough on my plate now without having 60 users coming to 
me with new problems.

Any help will be appreciated.....Joe
