[hylafax-users] Need help..no hyla.conf file

[Andrew Goifeld <ag@mercuryit.com.au>]

G'Day

I am a new user trying to install the latest unstable Hylafax package.

It seems to me that the install went ok, but, when I try to use gfax it
gives me an error in syslog..

HylaFAX LOGIN REFUSED (user denied)

When I tried to use sendfax I see no results (no dialing and no
activity).

I then tried this command

strace -o straceoutput sendfax -n -d #number

the strace output showed that the sendfax is trying to locate
/etc/hylafax/hyla.conf  and /etc/hylafax/sendfax.conf

Those files are not there and I don't know how to recreate them...

Can someone please help.

Thanks.
Andrew.
