Re: Problem with fax-out server --NOW WORKING :)



Hello,

Thank you for your reply :)

It turns out, I had run the faxaddmodem script, then the faxmodem script,
but it still wasn't working.  however, when I ran faxgetty on the serial
port, then it worked, and faxed out a document for me.  So it seems like
the faxmodem script jst wsn't doing the job right for me, thanks for
pointing me to try faxgetty(I hadn't before because i assumed i wouldn't
need it for a fax-out-only serversuch as I was trying to do at the time,
now i'll just use it cuz it works :)

i'll keep everyone posted as to my progress,should i encounter any more
troubles, thanks to al who offered advice :)

Josh
