[hylafax-users] faxgetty flailing and failing.

[Jean-Pierre Radley <jpr@xxxxxxx>]

On an SCO OSR 5.0.6 machine, the modem is a Hayes Optima 33600.
The config file contains:

ModemType:           Class1          # use this to supply a hint
ModemRate:           19200           # rate for DCE-DTE communication
ModemFlowControl:    rtscts          # default
ModemNoFlowCmd:      AT&K0           # setup no flow control
ModemHardFlowCmd:    AT&K3           # setup hardware flow control
ModemSoftFlowCmd:    AT&K4           # setup software flow control
ModemSetupDTRCmd:    AT&D3           # setup so DTR drop resets modemD3
ModemSetupDCDCmd:    AT&C1           # setup so DCD reflects carrier (or not)
ModemMfrQueryCmd:    !Rockwell
ModemModelQueryCmd:  !RC288DPi
ModemRevQueryCmd:    ATI3            # product information
ModemDialCmd:        ATDT%s          # T for tone dialing

faxgetty does not get launched by this line
in /etc/inittabCm despite repeated commands of 'init q':
	Se2A:234:respawn:/usr/local/sbin/faxgetty tty2A

So I commanded 'faxgetty 2A' from a root prompt, and the log reports:
