[hylafax-users] Forcing outgoing faxes to a ttyS0

["Josh Welch" <jwelch@buffalowildwings.com>]

I apologize if my question has an obvious answer. I have been reading, but
may have overlooked it and I am sort of in crunch time.
I have set up a HylaFax 4.1 server on Red Hat 7.1. Three modems ttyS0-ttyS2,
all multi-tech MT1932ZDX. I have Win9x clients which send via WHFC and
receive via PDF attachments in e-mail. Incoming faxes are routed to one of
two locations based on the device they come in on, they are then forwarded
to their intended recipient manually. The modems ttyS1 and ttyS2 are the
only lines that have incoming numbers. I want to force all faxes to go out
through ttyS0, thus leaving ttyS1 and 2 free to receive faxes. I have
faxgetty running on ttyS1 and ttyS2. I ran faxmodem for ttyS0 based on the
output of probemodem.
[root@mplsfax etc]# /usr/local/sbin/faxmodem -c
'(0-1),(0-5),(0-4),(0-2),(0-2),(0),(0),(0-7)' ttyS0
With the help of the list I configured my dialrules to force a dial 9.
Currently HylaFax is sending with ttyS1 and ttyS2, and ttyS0 is doing
nothing. Issuing the sendfax command to ttyS0 works if I add a 9 to the
number I'm dialing, but dialrules should take care of that, correct? So,
first, does anyone see anything in my config or dialrules which would
explain this? The config files are exact copies of each other, with only
FAXnumber changed, and currently we can send on ttyS1 and ttyS2. Second, how
can I force HylaFAX to use ttyS0 once it is working properly. Would running
faxmodem with a really low priority number work?
Thanks to anyone who takes the time to look at this.

! HylaFAX (tm) Dialing String Processing Rules.
!
! This file describes how to process user-specified dialing strings
! to create two items:
!
! CanonicalNumber: a unique string that is derived from all dialing
! strings to the same destination phone number.  This string is used
! by the fax server for ``naming'' the destination.
!
! DialString: the string passed to the modem for use in dialing the
! telephone.  This string should be void of any characters that might
! confuse the modem.
!
Area=${AreaCode}                ! local area code
Country=${CountryCode}          ! local country code
IDPrefix=${InternationalPrefix} ! prefix for placing an international call
LDPrefix=${LongDistancePrefix}  ! prefix for placing a long distance call
!
WS="    "                       ! our notion of white space
!
! Convert a phone number to a canonical format:
!
!    +<country><areacode><rest>
!
! by (possibly) stripping off leading dialing prefixes for
! long distance and/or international dialing.
!
