Re: [hylafax-users] Fax calls answered as data connection

["Mitesh P Choksi" <murli@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Lee and all,

Thank you for your reply.

I only turned on adaptive answer to fix the problem. It was switched off
by default and it is switched off as well

Is there anyways I can find out why does the faxgetty consider it as a
data connection even though it's just a normal fax call? I am looking for
debug facilities to first understand why it happens so that I can fix it.

This is a standard installation so probably it's happened to someboy else
as well.

Hope somebody has faced this situation.

Regards,

Mitesh
