Re: [hylafax-users] hylafax use only one of two modems

[Abacus Computer <support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks, normally I use the server only to send faxes, but I saw there is 
running faxgetty with ttyS0. And I do not find a way to stop it or to 
cancel it.

In the setup files I do not find an entry for faxgetty. How can I stop 
faxgetty or cancel it from this configuration?

If I send an fax now I got the message:
Unable to setup session parameters prior to call (modem command failed)
