Ok. I have the same problem. So let me ask it like this: what is the 
formats of these files and what are legal values for the "tags"?

All the manual says is:

       HylaFAX  client applications can be tailored on a per-user
       and per-site basis through configuration files.   Per-site
       controls    are    placed    in    the    file   /usr/con-
       trib/lib/hylafax/hyla.conf, while per-user controls go  in
       ~/.hylarc.

       Configuration files have a simple format and are  entirely
       ASCII.  A configuration parameter is of the form
            tag: value
       where a tag identifies a parameter and a value is either a
       string, number, or boolean value.


So I put this in our hyla.conf file:

    FAXSERVER: fax.gilasoft.com
    SNPPSERVER: fax.gilasoft.com

It doesn't seem to do anything.

Thanks for any help,
