I inserted below my configuration files for your reference. The file named
'config.ttyQ1a1' is my old server's config file. The server has an intelligent
Equinox 4xSerial-Port card inside, therefore this unusual device name. But
this config file also works smoothly with other servers on ttyS1 after
renaming.

First, I did a default 'faxaddmodem' and entered the parameters as described
in the SuSE 7.0 handbook. With this settings, I had the above problems. You
can see the configuration below in file config.ttyS1.

Then I copied without any change the .../etc/config.ttyQ1a1 file from my
working HylaFax server and named it config.ttyS1. -> Again same problem.
You see the configuration file below.

| Have you checked flow control settings?
This was the first I thought, too, so i played with the settings here.
The original config file (which I tried first) was configured using 'default'
flow control. But the config file from my working server uses explicitly
'xonxoff'. - Both configurations do not work and cause identical errors.
