flexfax: 4.0pl2 on FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE

[Michael Lyngbøl <michael@lyngbol.dk>]

Hi,

I'm trying to make HylaFax 4.0pl2 work on a FreeBSD/i386 4.0-STABLE
system.

I've installed HylaFax from ports-collection (/usr/ports/comm/hylafax),
which worked fine.

/usr/local/sbin/faxsetup has been used to setup the system.

hfaxd is run out of inetd:
lyngbol@ymer ~$ grep fax /etc/inetd.conf
hylafax stream  tcp     nowait  fax     /usr/local/sbin/hfaxd   hfaxd -I

faxq is started:
lyngbol@ymer ~$ ps axu|grep fax
uucp     27768  0.0  1.1  2192 1452  ??  Ss   11:27AM   0:00.02 faxq

Feed the system some dummy fax:
lyngbol@ymer ~$ sendfax -n -d 87303644 \
/usr/share/doc/bind/misc/style.txt
request id is 2 (group id 2) for host localhost (1 file)
lyngbol@ymer ~$ 

and nothing happend! why I havn't figured out. "faxstat -s" gives:

lyngbol@ymer ~$ faxstat -s
HylaFAX scheduler on ymer: Running

the above process just seems to have gone wild?


root@ymer.pil.dk fax$ faxstate -s ready cuaa0
FIFO.cuaa0: open: Device not configured
root@ymer.pil.dk fax$ 

why?


System: FreeBSD/i386 4.0-STABLE (as of april 8th)
modem: Microcom Deskporte S 33.6

Any help would be appreciated!
