[hylafax-users] permissions - chroot ? - faxrcvd

["Uwe Dippel" <udippel@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear all,

I'm trying to make some changes to faxrcvd here on 4.2.5 / OpenBSD.
Yes, the original faxrcvd works !

But i can't get for my life another command working in it.
I understand, it gets its commands from etc/setup.cache ?
So when I add
WC='/usr/bin/wc'
to etc/setup.cache it ought to work ?

In order to debug it, I added some echo. But also these don't show.
When I try
echo Nonsense >> myfile
in faxrcvd, nothing is written.
I 'touch'ed myfile in recvq/, but no success.
I even tried
$ECHO Nonsense >> myfile
since
ECHO='/bin/echo'

Can someone please point out the basics here:
Who executes faxrcvd ?
INFO=$SBIN/faxinfo
SENDER="`$INFO $FILE | $AWK -F: '/Sender/ { print $2 }' 2>$ERRORSTO |
$SED 's/^.//'`"
Therefore I guess, faxrcvd works in  recvq/ . Right ?

But further down, I *can*
cp $FILE.pdf publ/
(I created the dir publ/ in /var/spool/hylafax/); with exactly the
same permissions:)
drwxr-xr-x  2 uucp  dialer   512 Jul 17 15:14 publ
drwxr-xr-x  2 uucp  dialer  1024 Jul 17 15:13 recvq

Why can't I echo to recvq/ but cp to publ/ ??


Thanks so much for some enlightenment !

Uwe
