[hylafax-users] Modem will not answer "arggggg"

["Paul Kraus" <pkraus@pelsupply.com>]

I told my boss I would have this system up for him by Monday. I had
everything working good on redhat 7.3 but decided to use suse 8.1
instead. Everything about suse I liked better but it has been hell
trying to get this to work. Please any advice would be greatly
appreciated.

Ok I have deleted my config file /var/spool/fax/etc/config.ttyS4

I reran the faxaddmodem for this modem.

I then opened the file in emacs.

I do not see a RingBeforeAnswer Settings.

If I do faxanswer on this device it works like a champ.
Faxgetty is running. I get status but its just listening to modem ring.

Here is the config file config.ttyS4

# We can append the "@" symbol to the dial string so that
# the modem will wait 5 seconds before attempting to connect
# and return result codes that distinguish between no carrier
# and no answer.  This makes it possible to avoid problems with
# repeatedly dialing a number that doesn't have a fax machine
# (kudos to Stuart Lynne for this trick.)
