Re: [hylafax-users] Hylafax and egetty

[Branko Markovic <bramar@xxxxxxxx>]

	Thanx George,
but egetty.pl won't answer the line again. The thing that you sent me as
reply solved the problem with locking modem. I didn't
put /usr/local/bin/vm in PATHEGETTY. Symlink solved the problem. Anyway,
the line is not aswering. Here is log of /var/log/vm.log:

06/03 08:02:40  reading program vm configuration from config
file /usr/local/etc
/mgetty+sendfax/voice.conf
06/03 08:02:40  opening voice modem device
06/03 08:02:40  we *have* the line!
06/03 08:02:40  opened voice modem device /dev/ttySL0

I will try something, to solve this. If you know, what's the problem,
answer me... 

Thank you.
