If all you're trying to do is to set the Caller*ID information then you 
can do that in your Asterisk PBX.  Think about prefixing your dialstring 
with a specific code per-user... the PBX uses this information to set 
Caller*ID and to produce a true dialstring.

Most modems don't have a way to set the Caller*ID values, so for the 
most part you'll have to do something similar to the above in order to 
reuse modems with different users.  IAXmodem will eventually have the 
capability to set the Caller*ID information with AT commands, but most 
modems don't and won't ever likely.

Trying to set up one modem per user would be an acceptable approach if 
HylaFAX were able to allocate modems that way, but I think that if you 
were to consider the possibility of hundreds of users you'd find that 
approach would be burdensome.
