There are three types of authentication that can be done:  host-based 
authentication (based on IP address), username+password authentication 
(based on supplied username *and* password), and PAM-based 
authentication (uses PAM modules).

Using the HylaFAX username+password authentication will always require 
password verification.

My guess is that what you want is to set up some host-based 
authentication entries.

That said, I suspect that logging in with admin privileges will always 
require a password entry.
