Re: [hylafax-users] Errors when starting Hfaxd service.

[R3ckl3ss <r3ckl3ss@xxxxxxxxx>]

That would make sense.  I hapened to use a webmin module to manage some of the functions, and it only happens when I edit one of the modems, and then later restart the service.

Maybe I should spend more time using the commandline instead of a gui of sorts.  Being a Windows junkie I'm afraid that I would fubar something if I can't click a button.

Thanks for your help.

Normal behavior, be aware that you have to edit only the config files
