[hylafax-users] Trouble with faxspool

["Keith Hamilton" <khamilton@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm having some trouble with faxspool.  I have 2 accounts on my system that
both hylafax and mgetty use

fax:x:10:14:added by portage for mgetty:/var/spool/fax:/bin/false
uucp:x:10:14:uucp:/var/spool/uucppublic:/bin/false

I run:   faxspool -n 5551212 /etc/passwd and I get the following

faxq-helper: must be set-uid 'fax'
can't create new job directory, give up

here's the owner of my faxq-helper file

-rwx--x--x    1 uucp     root        16768 Feb 24 20:25 faxq-helper

Since fax and uucp have the same UID I can't seem to find a reason for a
problem.   I've tried changing the fax uid to a separate uid to create
nothing but problems.

Any help would be appreciated.
