	I run everything off a laptop.  I had someone contact me about
this.  Are you referring to a LAN setup?  The person who contacted me, is
thinking about writing a HylaFax LAN HOW-TO for SuSE
users.

	Good tip.  I did not know.  I don't know what a "converting false
PS-code" is, but apparantly this could happen, and the poor guy thinks
HylaFax is misconfigured.  Correct?
	Can a regular user shoot shoot of the /var/spool/fax/etc/hosts.hfaxd
file?  No permissions problems arise?

Thanks
Georg
