Hi Stephen,

 

What happens if you use Minicom ?  Do you see ‘ring’ displayed ?

Subject: [hylafax-users] receive fax problems - modem does not pickup

 

Hello Everyone,

I am working on a two modem setup that sends and receives faxes. I can send faxes without any issues, but I have not been able to configure the receive to work correctly.
When I fax to the number the modem does not pickup, I have tried calling the line as well and it just rings.

I am running RHEL 5 x86_64 and I installed the binary rpm from the hylafax website.

Initially I was having issues with the modem waiting to come ready or free, but I was able to reset it and it seems to be fine.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Stephen
