[hylafax-users] [Fwd: Hylafax Newbie: Cannot Initialize Server]

[Jason Self <jself@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

First of all I am a newbie like the subjet says when it comes to

hylafax.  Up untill last week I hadn't used a modem on a computer in 
about 10 years much less for linux,  This is what happens when you are 
DSL spoiled I guess.  On with the question:
I have a Zoom Fax Modem,  RedHat 8.0 and RPM installs of hylafax-server 
etc.  I have tired to use winprint-hylafax to print from a windows 
client to the hylafax server but I am having no luck.  I have no idea 
where to locate log files to tell what is not communicating correctly, 
especially since /var/spool/hylafax/log is empty.  when I type faxstat I 
get the following 'HylaFAX scheduler on localhost.localdomain: Running' 
'Modem ttyS0 (phone number): Initializing server.

It is always initializing server and I am not sure why.  I have set up a 
hylafax user and named it faxuser, and I am getting to a loss as to how 
to get things running the rest of the way.  Any guidance would be 
greatly appreciated and I have been reading through the documentation.

Thanks for the time,
Jason
