Re: [hylafax-users] Trouble receiving faxes



Title: Re: [hylafax-users] Trouble receiving faxes
hello all,

The silence is deafening :)
I'm willing to pay for some help here.
I've emailed sales@xxxxxxxx and sales@xxxxxxxxxxx as well as this list and so far no-one has replied.

I think it's my modem config - I've used the instructions at http://www.hylafax.org/howto/tweaking.html to build my own config, I'm using class 1 (the dynalinks don't support class 2) and still I'm getting timeouts while receiving.

I'm willing to try new modems -any australian users of hylafax have any suppliers they can use and recommend please?

BTW how do I determine what flow control the modems are using?
During faxaddmodem I entered XONXOFF for software flow control but the config.tty.. file doesn't mention that - is that OK?

Sorry for the newbie questions but I have trawled the list and googled 'til I dropped.

tia

Hello,

This is my first Hylafax install and so far it's been quite rewarding thanks to the excellent list/hylafax community.
I'm having some fun getting Hylafax Version 4.2.0rc2 receiving properly on a Mac OS X 10.3.4 PowerMac G3.

The server is running and receiving faxes - but not all. So far (with limited testing) most faxes aren't received.
The sending modem/fax keeps sending HDLC and Training before giving up.

I'm using a Dynalink 56K e-modem II 1456VQE-C with what looks like a Topic chipset.

(I'm using this via a KeySpan 4 Port serial card.)

thanks for any help or advice in advance

adam
