[hylafax-users] FreeBSD 4.x/5.x + HylaFAX 4.2 : I'm giving up!



Hi,
I've did a few installation of FreeBSD + Hylafax 4.1.8
and all times went
okay!
But this last week I'm really giving up trying to set
FreeBSD + Hylafax
4.2.0.

I tried to install in all the ways, via ports, via
pkg_add in about 4
different PC (Pentium II, PentiumIII, PentiumIV,
Celeron 566).
I tried to install FreeBSD 4.9, 4.10, 5.2.1., 5.3 but
no way... always I get
the following error from 'faxaddmodem' installation
script:
"Hmm, something seems to be hung. Check you modem eh
?"

I tried all above installation with 3 different modem,
including latest
Multitech and very old Zoom

I don't believe is an hardware matter because 4
different MB, 4 different
HDD.
Just immediately after installed FreeBSD, without any
other hardware.
Just MB, Ram, Graphic Card, HDD & CDROM.
I disable ParPort and anything else from the bios!
The 'dmesg' confirm that sio0 & sio1 exist with IRQ4 &
IRQ3 etc...
I also tried with ACPI disable.

Even if the configuration file went created
'config.cuaa0', forcing the
'faxaddmodem' to go ahead, when I try to send a fax,
it remain in the queue.
Rights Permission are properly settled in 'hosts.faxd'
and 'hfaxd', 'faxq'
and 'faxmodem' are running as per 'ps -aux'.
'faxstat' inform me that Hylafax scheduler is running

But 'faxstate cuaa0' report me the following error :
'FIFO.cuaa0: open: Device not configured'

After 4 days looking for hylafax mailing
list/google/etc without a valid
answer, I tried debian-linux and everything is working
perfectly, both
incoming and outgoing fax.
All fax submitted from clients on the same lan are
sent out smoothly!
Customer has 6 servers, all in FreeBSD. I don't want
to install this fax
server under Debian. I want to understand why these 2
errors!

Someone can help me ?
Thank you in advance
David
