Re: [hylafax-users] Fine tuning retry delay and numder of times to redial

[Fernando <fernando.alhambra@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Luigi,

I don't know to much about this parameters, but I added this:
MaxDials: n
in the /etc/hylafax/hyla.conf and it works fine.
You can check it and many more in the hylafax-config man page.

Regards,

FAP.
