RE: flexfax: Problem with whfc via dialup

["Bernd Proissl" <news@proissl.de>]

Same with me!

I cannot use WHFC over IP network boundaries.

I am also develpoing a java hylafax client. it shows the same problem.
I haven't had the time to dig into it.

i can do a telnet over network boundaries to hfaxd, i can use some
interactive commands. Same is true for my client, but it
chrashes (just freezes) when it retrieves the hylafax directories, may be
the same with
whfc?

My client currently uses communications code from susefax. anyone has the
same
kind of problem with susefax?

i have no detailed knowleged about hylafax communications protocoll. Maybe
some can help?
