Hi folks.

I´m using:
Linux leon 2.0.25 #2 Thu Dec 12 17:26:44 CET 1996 i486
with Modem:
MODEM MOTOROLA 28.8/Motorola 3400 28.8 External 68356 ROM  SW REV 2
and Hylafax Version:
220 leon.gds.de server (HylaFAX (tm) Version 4.0pl1) ready.

I am sitting here now a long time not getting the problem in my head.
I get only one half running. I have no problem to receive a fax, but I
cannot send one. 

When I try to send a fax as root, I get this:

root@leon:/mnt/hd2/home/speedy > sendfax -n *16 /etc/fstab
Trying fax device '/dev/cua1'... OK.
sendfax: cannot set fax station ID.

And syslog says:

Jan  7 11:04:43 leon FaxGetty[245]: ANSWER: Can not lock modem device
Jan  7 11:04:43 leon sendfax[1159]: cannot set fax station ID: No such
file or directory
Jan  7 11:07:45 leon FaxGetty[245]: MODEM MOTOROLA 28.8/Motorola 3400
28.8 External 68356 ROM  SW REV 2

When I try to send a fax as normal user, I get this:

speedy@leon:/mnt/hd2/home/speedy > sendfax -n *16 /etc/fstab
Trying fax device '/dev/cua1'... OK.
sendfax: cannot set fax station ID

And syslog says:

Jan  7 11:07:13 leon FaxGetty[245]: ANSWER: Can not lock modem device
Jan  7 11:07:13 leon sendfax[1166]: cannot set fax station ID: No such

Maybe I´m blind, but I do´nt know, what else to do. I have no
problems to login into the server:

Connected to leon.gds.de.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 leon.gds.de server (HylaFAX (tm) Version 4.0pl1) ready.

This is the LINUX-Site, but I habe Problems with the Windows-Client 
to. I´m using Winflex to send pages from Windows. From this I get him 
dialing the number, but aber connecting to the remote fax, I have 
troubel again. 

I get always two errors, one is:

Modem does not support document page width, max page width 2432
pixels, image width 1686 pixels

The other:

Document was encoded with 2DMR, but client does not support this data
format

But most the first one. I really don´t know, what it is. I look for 
it in the Manual for Motorola, but nothing to find.

The complete session log is in the Attachments.
File c00000038 describes the first error and file c00000037 the 
second. 

For Hylafax I´m a beginner, so please don´t get angry on beginner 
faults. 

Thanks.
