Title: Re: [hylafax-users] Errors in fax logs...

Oh, and there is a another box here also equipped with an eight line modem board configured identically to the production machine, also running Slackware and the same version of HylaFAX, used as a backup.  I am going to attempt the upgrade on this machine first and assuming it goes well will upgrade the production machine.

With regard to my last post where I asked about which version to download, does it make any difference both these machines are running on Intel based hardware (Dell PowerEdge)?

Thanks,

Barry

As far as I know Slackware doesn't have a HylaFAX distribution that
comes with it, and I thought that Slackware did all of its installs from
source anyway.  So assuming that the result of `which faxgetty` says
"/usr/local/sbin/faxgetty" it would generally seem that you have a
default installation from source.  If that's the case, then go to here:

  http://hylafax.sourceforge.net/howto/install.php#ss2.2

and start at subsection 2.2.2 and go through 2.2.7.  Keep in mind that
this was written particularly for new installations, so when upgrading
some of those things may be already done for you and you just need to
double-check them... and do a 'hylafax stop' before doing 'hylafax start'.

If this is too much for you, and since this is a production server, I
would then recommend that you hire a consultant to perform the upgrade. 
There are many of us here who are more than willing to assist in this.

Thanks,

Lee.
