[hylafax-users] Configuration

["Walter L. Crox (Yahoo)" <w_crox@yahoo.com>]

I recently downloaded and installed the Red Hat 9 binary.  My Conexant 
HSF modem (/dev/modem) is not recognized by the installation program. 
Is there anyone using a Conexant HSF modem with HylaFAX?
Please see dialog:

The directory /usr/share/ghostscript/fonts does not exist or this file

This is the directory where the HylaFAX client applications expect to
locate font metric information to use in formatting ASCII text for
submission as facsimile.  Without this information HylaFAX may generate
illegible facsimile from ASCII text.

You do not appear to have a "fax" user in the password file.
HylaFAX needs this to work properly, add it [yes]? yes
Added user "fax" to /etc/passwd.


There does not appear to be an entry for the FaxMaster either in
the YP/NIS database or in the /etc/aliases file.  The
FaxMaster is the primary point of contact for HylaFAX problems.
The HylaFAX client-server protocol server identifies this alias as
the place to register complaints and HylaFAX directs automatic mail
messages to this user when problems are identified on a server
machine or when the routine server maintainence scripts are run
(e.g. faxcron).

Should an entry be added for the FaxMaster to /etc/aliases [yes]? yes
Users to receive fax-related mail [crox]? yes
/etc/aliases: 64 aliases, longest 10 bytes, 637 bytes total
Rebuilt /etc/aliases database.
Update /var/spool/hylafax/status/any.info.

Ok, time to setup a configuration file for the modem.  The manual

Now we are going to probe the tty port to figure out the type
of modem that is attached.  This takes a few seconds, so be patient.
Note that if you do not have the modem cabled to the port, or the
modem is turned off, this may hang (just go and cable up the modem
or turn it on, or whatever).

Probing for best speed to talk to modem: 38400 OK.

The result of the AT+FCLASS=? command was:

ATQ0V1E1
OK
AT+FCLASS=?
0

OK

We were unable to deduce what type of modem you have.  This means that
it did not respond as a Class 1, Class 2, or Class 2.0 modem should.
If you believe that your modem conforms to the Class 1, Class 2, or
Class 2.0 interface specification, then check that the modem is
operating properly and that you can communicate with the modem from the
host.  If your modem is not one of the above types of modems, then this
software does not support it and you will need to write a driver that
supports it.

Do you want to run faxaddmodem to configure another modem [yes]? no

Done verifying system setup.
