You've misunderstood.  These are HylaFAX-only users and aren't
cross-referenced to /etc/passwd.  Use 'faxadduser' and 'faxdeluser' to
manage it.

Just as it should be... it's not cross-referencing with /etc/passwd.

If your IP is 192.168.1.10 and your subnet is 255.255.255.0, then use:

	192.168.1\..*

in your hosts.hfaxd file.

That's the best part about 'faxadduser' - it does that for you.

Doesn't matter.
