Not HylaFAX's fault!  Long-standing RedHat bug:

[root@spare /root]# cat /etc/redhat-release 
Red Hat Linux release 6.1 (Cartman)
[root@spare /root]# locate rec.1
/usr/man/man1/rec.1
[root@spare /root]# rpm -qf /usr/man/man1/rec.1
sox-12.16-3
[root@spare /root]# ls -al /usr/man/man1/rec.1
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root           37 May 28 00:48 /usr/man/man1/rec.1 -> /var/tmp/sox-root/usr/man/man1/play.1
[root@spare /root]# cat /usr/man/man1/rec.1
cat: /usr/man/man1/rec.1: No such file or directory

It's a broken symlink. Just delete it, or better yet delete it and then:

ln -s /usr/man/man1/play.1 /usr/man/man1/rec.1
