FaxQCleaner & faxaddmodem complaining ...



I recently installed HylaFAX and have encountered a few minor problems,
hopfully the solutions are simple.

I'm running Solaris 2.6 (SunOS 5.6 sun4m sparc) and have installed the
hylafax-sparc-sunos5.5-v4.0pl1-pkg.gz package.

** First problem - FaxQCleaner is complaing.  Here's what I get:

(/var/adm/messages) every hour:
Mar 23 10:00:00 rain FaxQCleaner[4004]: The fax server must run with real uid root.
Mar 23 11:00:00 rain FaxQCleaner[4025]: The fax server must run with real uid root.
Mar 23 12:00:00 rain FaxQCleaner[4029]: The fax server must run with real uid root.
Mar 23 13:00:00 rain FaxQCleaner[4033]: The fax server must run with real uid root.
Mar 23 14:00:03 rain FaxQCleaner[4038]: The fax server must run with real uid root.
Mar 23 15:00:00 rain FaxQCleaner[4042]: The fax server must run with real uid root.

installed in /opt/local/fax/lib using pkgadd:
-rwsr-xr-x   1 root     other     505740 Dec  9  1996 hfaxd

(ps -ef | grep uucp)
uucp  3141     1  0   Mar 19 ?        0:01 /opt/local/fax/lib/faxgetty cua/a
uucp  3128     1  0   Mar 19 ?        0:00 /var/spool/fax/bin/faxq
uucp  3130     1  0   Mar 19 ?        0:00 /opt/local/fax/lib/hfaxd -i hylafax -o 4557 -s 444

(/var/spool/cron/crontabs/root)
0 * * * * /var/spool/fax/bin/faxqclean
25 3 * * * sh /var/spool/fax/bin/faxcron | mail FaxMaster

What needs to be changed in order to get FaxQCleaner happy? 


** Second, faxaddmodem and probemodem complain:
(using /dev/cua/a)

Probing for best speed to talk to modem: 38400 OK.

Hmm, something seems to be hung, check your modem eh?"

Hmm, this looks like a Class 2 modem.
Modem manufacturer is "Multi-Tech Systems".
Modem model is "MT2834MR".
DTE-DCE flow control scheme [default]?

Should I worry about that "Hmm, something seems to be hung, check your
modem eh?"  error during setup?  Everything appears to be working fine
(sending and receiving), although it has not been used extensively (only
about 5 incoming and 5 outgoing so far). 

I hope I supplied enough information.
Any help would be appreciated!  Thanks!!
