[hylafax-users] Rockwell modem cards in Lucent TNT

[Tracy R Reed <treed@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

[ Sorry if this is a repeat for anyone but I never saw it come by my
mailbox so I am resending ]

Hello all! I have been banging on this problem for a couple weeks and
scouring google and have not yet come up with anything so I am getting
desperate: I have a Lucent TNT box with a card of modems in it. The modems
seem to be a Rockwell chipset. From all of my googling I seem to be the
only person in the world using this device. I am using a perl script found
on the net called PortRedirector to connect port 5001 on the TNT to a pty
on a Linux Fedora 2 box so that Hylafax can talk to the modem through a
normal tty interface. I had to specify the -8LE options to telnet in the
perl script to get an 8 bit clean telnet connection.

I originally ran faxaddmodem on it and it configured it as a class 1 fax
by default but it never worked very well.  It will not connect to several
fax machines I need to send to, fails to negotiate (train) a particular
speed with others, etc. I have tried it as a class 2 fax and then it would
connect to some of the faxes it could not connect to before and transmit a
fax seemingly successfully but hylafax would still end the transmission
with an error "Unspecified Transmit Phase C error". I have tried using the
rockwell chipset configs that come with hylafax and when calling as a
class 1 fax it often fails to negotiate a connection ending with "Failure
to train remote modem at 2400 bps or minimum speed; too many attempts to
dial" and when calling another modem a common failure is "Unable to set
session parameters; too many attempts to dial". So my config is clearly
screwy.

Here is a sequence from Hylafax's modem init using the auto-generated
config:

So I figure the last line has all of the chipset/model information. Does
anyone have a working config for this or any suggestions on what I should
try?

I could include my existing config here but it doesn't work and it's
basically a copy of /var/spool/hylafax/config/rockwell-k56 or the generic
class 1 or 2 faxmodem configs that came with hylafax.
