[hylafax-users] Issues with files in /recvq folder

[Cameron Clark <cclark@acs-architects.com>]

Hello,

I installed Hylafax last week as a sort of proof-of-concept for taking over 
our fax services (currently handled by Winfax)... I have hylafax running on 
a P166, 96Mb RAM, Redhat 8.0 (with all updates and the 2.4.20-19 kernel, 
new Multitech MT5634ZBA external modem. The machine is slow, but it works. 
When I get this all sorted out I'll probably get a dedicated machine and 
maybe a multi-modem PCI card.

At first I only wanted incoming faxes mailed in pdf format, and that is 
working just fine. However I am now trying to play with the archival and 
outgoing functions of hylafax and I'm running into an issue. I'm using 
Cypheus as the client. When I click on a received fax to view it in 
Cypheus, I get a "The Document is not available" error. I figured this out 
to be that the permissions on the tif files stored in 
/var/spool/hylafax/recvq are wrong for viewing via the client, for example:
-rw-------    1 uucp     uucp        92290 Aug 18 07:35 fax00038.tif

I changed one of the files to 644:
-rw-r--r--    1 uucp     uucp       312906 Aug 18 09:36 fax00045.tif
and it works, I can view it in Cypheus.

So, my question is, do I have to write a cron job to change the permissions 
on those files periodically or did I miss something in the setup process?
Thanks,
