[hylafax-users] Modem Rings out between fax hangup ATH0 and "Running and Idle"

["Burath, Philipp" <Philipp.Burath@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

I have searched the mailing list and haven't found anything on this problem.


What is occuring is that if someone tries to connect to the faxmodem while
it is re-initalizing itself, the modem rings out and can't re-initialize
until the other side has hung up. This can be seen in the log below. Is it
possible to set DTR ON as the last thing the modem does, so that it doesn't
accept any calls during the initialization phase. Or is the idea of forward
the call on no answer a better idea.

We are running Redhat ES 3.0 on our hylafax server version 4.1.8. Here is an
extract from the log when a connection is made while the modem is
initializing itself after receiving a fax:
