[hylafax-users] Sendtime hyla.conf (more)

[Tony Delov <tony.delov@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
In an attempt to get batching working.
I've been trying to config sendfax to send all faxes 5 minutes into the
future.
However I'm not too sure how the Sendfax option in hyla.conf takes its
time arguments.

This is what i have in hyla.conf

SendTime: "now + 5 minutes"


To add to my confusion, I have found that when ever I send a fax while
none other are in the que, the first fax seems to be put a day ahead.
the rest show the time expected, however, the time will come and go, and
still none of the faxes will be sent.

I cam across the FAQ page that talks about the date "-u" option, 
http://www.hylafax.org/HylaFAQ/Q230.php
Timezone of Server OS must be set correctly, all seems ok with that.
5 minute's from now is in 5 minutes time no matter what time code/zone
your using, so I'm not sure if that would apply to what im seeing.

This is what happens when i send 3 faxes one after the other. When none
others are in the que.
Note the time of the first one.

 # sendfax -vv -n -a 'now + 1 minute' -d 1 /etc/passwd ; sendfax -vv -n
-a 'now + 1 minute' -d 1 /etc/passwd ; sendfax -vv -n -a 'now + 1
minute' -d 1 /etc/passwd

# faxstat -s
