Re: [hylafax-users] Ftp to hylafax server fails.

is it possible to ftp to that port?  i know you havta change hosts.hfaxd to grant access to say a winblows client.    also check your firewall isn't blocking as well.  (iptables) nmap linux box from itself to make sure that it is indeed listening.  then perhaps portscan from the destination to make sure you can get to the port from destination...

HI all,

I'm trying to get an old copy of Hylafax running (hylafax-4.1rc1) under AIX 4.3.3 on our server Host1. The initial problem I have is that if I ftp to the hylafax port or issue a sendfax I get the following error message

Service not available, remote server closed connection

I have ensured that I have etc/hosts.hfaxd present as follows

-rw-------   1 uucp     uucp         132 Jun 04 18:08 hosts.hfaxd

with the following entries

localhost
127.0.0.1
10.9.130.36
cass3

Can anyone provide any guidance on this one ?
