["Victor M. Moreno" <vmoreno@germinus.com>]

Thanks very much to Jay and Lee for the quick answer.

Finally I did the following (just in case it is helpful to anyone):

========> Instalando hylafax sobre Mandrake7.2
1. rpm -e hylafax-client-4.1
2. rpm -e hylafax-4.1
3. rpm -e mgetty-sendfax
4. rpm -i hylafax4.1b2-5rh6.i386.rpm
5. reboot
6. startx, y salir de X
7. faxsetup
8. reboot
9. editar /etc/inittab
 t2:23:respawn:/usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyS1
10. reboot
11. probar con faxstat

Again, thanks a lot & regards

Victor
