Hmmm...

Internet Connection Sharing is a *Windows 98* keyword.  Should I assume
that that's *not* really what you mean: that your Linux box is merely a
firewall and maybe a NAT box?

Well, you know, I'm not sure that your induction follows, since I can't
think of anything in particular that HylaFAX might do that would break
anything else you're doing.

If you installed from an RPM, you can simply rpm -e the package -- this
is, BTW, the reason *why* we suggest that people who can install from
an RPM do so.

If not... Hmmm... is there a target in the makefile to do an uninstall,
Lee?
