for what this is worth!  I got hylafax working with the help of the 
document Q115, but there were some steps to be ignored - other steps 
really helped.
In my situation (Suse STandard Server 8, all up to date with patches), I 
just installed the Hylafax RPM from the disks.
So, for step 2 - is should just say install from SLSS or SLES disks.
I skipped over step 3 since the modern SLSS or SLES can check for 
dependancies

step 4 is still relevant

step 5 doesn't apply to USA

step 6 still works

step 7 still works
step A works
step B I skipped
step C and D were a bit weird, I did not find the ModemDialCmd on my file

step E I used rchylafax start

step F is important, this still applies
Step G I skipped
Step H I skipped
Step I is helpful, but I didn't reboot, I just started the hylafax and 
faxgetty process from before

Hope this helps!
How can we update this and put it on the FAQ section?  Getting info. for 
the modern versions of Suse and hylafax would be very helpful.

Regards,

Oskar
