    hi!
    
    i have HylaFAX 4 with sunsparc20 under solaris 2.4
    
    i tried to modify the faxrcvd in the following manner:
    
    original: $FAX2PS $FILE 2>/dev/null
    modified: $FAX2PS $FILE | lp
    
    where $FAX2PS has been initialized like that:
    FAX2PS=/opt/local/tiff/bin/fax2ps  (the real path)
    
    it doesnt work though  :-(

in the original script faxrcvd(1M) the $FAX2PS is used to
convert the received facsimile to PostScript to build
a MIME e-mail; this is only done if there is a destination $SENDTO,
check the man page of faxrcvd(1M) how to set $SENDTO
and create the script etc/FaxDispatch, if this is what
you want (routing received facsimilies to a receipient
in PostScript);
    
    any advise? :)

yes; read *all* the docs and man pages, read them again and
if you still have questions read them once more;
