Re: [hylafax-users] Winflex and HylaFax 4.0.2 (Debian Potato)

["A. Caruso" <acaruso@houston.rr.com>]

Sascha:

I may be mistaken, but get rid of the line with the ip address in $SPOOL/etc/hosts.hfaxd file.  I put the ip address in /etc/hosts so ident worked faster.  I found that worked fine.

my etc/hosts.hfaxd
localhost
127.0.0.1
anonymous::I/zWmD4nWev5E:ZPb2qA9o/vTws

the above entry was made with the command
faxadduser -a admin -p passwd anonymous

<Note:  Don't leave it like that!>

/etc/hosts
10.1.1.1		myntbox

Hope it helps.
