It shouldn't be disturbing.  This is well-documented.

http://www.hylafax.org/howto/install.html#ss2.2  (see 2.2.5 & 2.2.7)
http://www.hylafax.org/howto/install.html#ss2.3  (see 2.3.1.4 & 2.3.1.6)
http://www.hylafax.org/howto/using.html#ss3.2
http://www.hylafax.org/howto/help.html#ss8.2
http://www.hylafax.org/man/faxgetty.html (the faxgetty man page)

My guess is that you didn't read the instructions before you started

There's plenty of step-by-step documentation for newbies, but there is 
nothing for newbies who don't read.
