[hylafax-users] happily sending/receiving for 2 months, then stopped receiving.....




hello list - i set up a fax server in march. for 2 months, there were no problems, the server was sending and receiving faxes just fine.


i'm using an internal usr 5610 that's configured as class 1. i had previously configured it as class 2.0, but some fax machines we were receiving from couldn't talk to it. switching to class 1 fixed that problem.

suddenly, in the middle of the day last week, it stopped receiving faxes altogether. sending still works fine. the last received fax log is below:

here's what was in the messages log for this fax:

looks normal, just like every other fax received for the last 2 months.


however, the very next fax, and every one after that one, look similar to this:

it's showing it's answering (which i confirm by listening), but something sounds wrong with the handshake - the tone doesn't sound the same as it did. we're using a backup fax machine now, and it is happily receiving faxes with no problems.


from what i've read, it seems as though problems like this are troubleshot by trying another faxmodem and checking for line noise. i plan on swapping out the modem, but am wondering if it'll help since the server still sends faxes just fine.

if i'm missing something obvious, could someone let me know?

regards, paul
