[hylafax-users] HylaFAX Virtual Server/Modem Question

[Richard Morris <richard@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

Several months ago we were trying to consolidate our servers into one 
using VMware's Server virtualization technology.  All of our servers 
made the transition really well including HylaFAX during the testing we 
did.  However, when I set up the new server for production use HylaFAX 
started to have problems.  Anytime we tried to send out a fax from 
HylaFAX using our MultiTech external serial modem, the connection would 
be made but the modems had troubles trying to talk to each other and 
eventually one of them who break the connection.

So I figured that the serial port on the new server isn't really up to 
the task of handling a virtual HylaFAX.  My question is, can someone 
maybe recommend a good USB modem to use instead?  We use an external USB 
hard drive to backup key data from one of the virtual servers and it has 
never failed us so I was hoping that maybe using an external USB modem 
would do the trick for HylaFAX.  I did a search of the mailing list 
archive but I didn't really find any recommendations for USB modems.

Thank you.
