[hylafax-users] Hylafax will not dial

[christoph joetten <christoph.joetten@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We have some trouble with making hylafax to dial a telephone number.

In our key telephone system we need to dial first 31 then 0 to get the 
dialing tone. We tested 'ATX3DT31,0,<number> with minicom and it worked 
perfectly.

Typing in the same string in the config.ttyS0 configuration file using 
ModemDialCmd shows no effect. Hylafax states 'no local dialtone'.

To find out what happens, we printed all commands between modem and 
serial device on a laptops' monitor. In result hylafax always sends a 
'ATZ' string, followed by a lot of commands. This sequence starting with 
'ATZ'  is always repeated. There is no dialcommand in the sequence. I 
had actually expected to find all the commands from config.ttyS0  in the 
sequence, including  the ModemDialCmd.  Can you give me an explanation 
of this strange behaviour ?

When faxgetty runs, the 'lsof /dev/modem' command prints out that there 
are three or more faxgetty processes are running. What is the reason for 
that ?

Thanks for your effort

joe
