[hylafax-users] problems accessing hosts.hfaxd



hi all,

i've encountered another problem on my fresh debian (sarge) and hylafax
install.

My clients can't authenticate against the hfaxd because the hfaxd can't
access the ./etc/hosts.hfaxd file (thats what i know because of this
daemon.log line):
Oct 25 19:07:22 localhost HylaFAX[10143]: Unable to open the user access
file /etc/hylafax/hosts.hfaxd: No such file or directory
Oct 25 19:07:22 localhost HylaFAX[10143]: HylaFAX LOGIN REFUSED (user
denied) FROM selene.dialog [172.16.0.189], wpichler

ps -aux shows me:
uucp     10135  0.0  0.3  4792 1720 ?        Ss   19:07   0:00
/usr/sbin/hfaxd -i 4559

that my hfaxd is running as user uucp (standard fax user on debian)

my hosts.hfaxd file has the following access rights:
-rw-------  1 uucp uucp    24 2004-10-25 19:06 hosts.hfaxd

which seems perfectly ok

in my /etc/passwd i have:
uucp:x:10:10:uucp:/var/spool/uucp:/bin/sh

and in my group file i have:
uucp:x:10:

so, as far as i can see there should not be any problem...

whats going wrong ?

regards,
Wolfgang
