Re: [hylafax-users] QualifyCID -and- (HylaFAX Version 4.1)

[Campbell McKilligan <cowboycam@2die4.com>]

First test your etc/cid file with tsitest:

[campbell@viper etc]# which tsitest
/usr/sbin/tsitest

[campbell@viper etc]# tsitest /var/spool/fax/etc/cid
ready> 911
[check ^0299290282$]
[check ^0398702955$]
[check ^.*$]
accept (matched by ^.*$)
ready>

AS CID, TSI and tsitest use the same regex code this will make sure that the
regex code is not broken in your version and that your etc/cid file is correct.

There is a patch you can apply to util/RegEx which stops Hylafax from
incorrectly rejecting CID or TSIs (depending on which one you are checking)
when the received string is empty.

There is a second patch which ensures that CID passed on for checking properly
once it is received.  Just because CID numbers appear in the logs, it doesn't
guarantee that it got sent of for checking properly.
