RE: Basic Linux information needed?




Start with Unix / Linux version & manufacturer... 

Compile problems would need gnu or any other compiler version numbers.

It might pay to look at the FAQ & search the mail archives.. I've found them
to be pretty helpful..

When you do have a problem have a look at your log file.. Usually
/var/log/messages...

If theres not enough info in the log file turn on a higher level of
debugging, do a "man config" for details on this..

		Subject:	flexfax: Basic Linux information needed?

		I have recently setup hylafax on my Gnu/Linux box. I believe
that I have
		followed the instructions correctly, but hylafax is not
working. I am
		using the same modem to make my ppp internet connection, and
have seen
		messages about hylafax's inability to create a lock file on
/dev/ttyS1. 
		My first questions are pretty basic.  What information do I
need to
		gather in order to ask an intelligent question here, And
What steps do I
		need to take to obtain that information and to determine the
cause of
		Hylafax's  failure to work properly ?  Thank you
