[hylafax-users] multiple faxsend on the same serial

["francesco messineo" <francesco.messineo@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I observed this strange behaviour on two different installation of
hylafax (both 4.3.3, the first on a CentOS distribution, the second on
a Ubuntu 6.10).

Sometimes I observe a whole lot of wedged modems, looking at the
session logs I see "strange" things, like different processess talking
to the same modem. Infacts, I see different processes talking to the
same modem:

30859 ?        S      0:00 faxsend -m ttyM14 sendq/q45662
31071 ?        S      0:00 faxsend -m ttyM14 sendq/q45459
31288 ?        S      0:00 faxsend -m ttyM14 sendq/q45676
31299 ?        S      0:00 faxsend -m ttyM14 sendq/q45393

Obviously ttyM14 is reported as wedged very often in this case.

On the CentOS distribution the faxgettys were configured in
/etc/inittab, on the Ubuntu 6.10 they are configured in /etc/event.d
(this distribution uses upstart instead of init).
Did I make an obvious configuration error or something is wrong somewhere else?
I observed that disabling the faxgettys somehow helps, but I always
have to remember which modem is supposed to receive fax and which is
send-only. I'd like to find a better solution.

Thanks in advance.

Francesco
