Notice that FaxSend is looking for /dev/ttyiaxmodem/1 and the device is 
really at /dev/ttyiaxmodem_1.

HylaFAX interprets underscores in a device name as "subdirectory" indicator.

In this case it probably would be best if you simply did not use the 
underscore character in your iaxmodem device symlink name.

Thanks,
