Here is the code from Debian's /etc/iunit.d/hylafax:

    if [ ${USE_FAXGETTY} = "yes" ]
    then
      count=$(ps --no-headers -Chfaxd,faxq,faxgetty | wc -l)
    else
      count=$(ps --no-headers -Chfaxd,faxq | wc -l)
    fi

    if [ $count -eq 0 ];
    then
      copy_slash_etc
      echo -n "Starting HylaFAX daemons:"
#[code to start faxq, hfaxd]
#[code to optionally start faxgetty process[es] or to run faxmodem]
    else
      echo "Not starting HylaFAX daemons since they are already  
running." 1>&2
      exit 1
    fi


The "already running" message should be printed if the ps command found  
a process hfaxd, faxq or maybe faxgetty.

If I understand it right this may happen when faxgetty is started in  
/etc/inittab and you have USE_FAXGETTY=yes in /etc/default/hylafax.


The code in /etc/iunit.d/hylafax could be changed to check every  
process inidividually.
