[hylafax-users] help needed!!

["Muhammad Rizwan Ali" <alphromeo@hotmail.com>]

Scenario:

 

I have installed Hylafax on my slackware linux file-server. I want that all faxes can get automatically printed to the attached Brother Fax machine. Note that this machine also serves as the samba print server & I'm using all the jobs to use the samba print queue. Each fax should also be converted to PDF & saved in shared folder "/home/public/FAX", using date & time for the file name. To do this can I add the following lines in "faxrcvd" file??????

 

Proposed Solution:

 

FILENAME=`echo $FILE | sed -e 's/\.tif//'`
/usr/bin/tiff2ps -a $FILE | lpr -P BrotherFax -o natural-scaling=95 -o media=letter

/usr/bin/tiff2ps -a -O $SPOOL/$FILENAME.ps $SPOOL/$FILE
/usr/bin/ps2pdf $SPOOL/$FILENAME.ps $SPOOL/$FILENAME.pdf

mv $SPOOL/$FILENAME.pdf /home/public/FAX/

Now, here I'm stuck. How can I use the date & time for the filename??

 

Kindly guide me to do the above mentioned tasks. Your instance help is highly appreciated.

 

Regards,

 

Rizwan.
