If you have a send-only configuration, that is not running faxgetty,
you need to run faxmodem each time you start hfaxd.  I've modified
the hylafax rc script to do this...

IS_ON=/etc/chkconfig            # NB: chkconfig is IRIX-specific
FAXQ=$SBIN/faxq
HFAXD=$LIBEXEC/hfaxd
FAXQUIT=$SBIN/faxquit
FAXMODEM=$SBIN/faxmodem
KILLALL=/sbin/killall
FAXPORT=hylafax                 # designated port for new protocol
SNPPPORT=444                    # official port for SNPP
ZYXEL='(0,1),(0-5),(0-2),(0-2),(0,1),(0),(0),(0-7)'
MULTI='(0-1),(0-5),(0-4),(0-2),(0),(0),(0),(0-7)'

...

        if $IS_ON fax && test -x $FAXQ; then
            killall -15 faxq
            killall -15 hfaxd
            $ECHO "HylaFAX:\c"
            $FAXQ; $ECHO " faxq\c"
            $HFAXD -i $FAXPORT -o 4557 -s $SNPPPORT
                $ECHO " hfaxd (w/ compatibility & SNPP)\c"
            $FAXMODEM -c "$MULTI" cua/b; $ECHO " faxmodem\c"
            $ECHO "."
        fi
