The permissions on my dialrules file is as follows:

root@host:/opt/hylafax-5.1.8/var/spool/etc # ls -l dialrules
-r--r--r--   1 root     root        2252 Oct  8 22:54 dialrules

Just as a precaution, I verified that the modem config files also have
the dialrules defined in them, but the problem still appears to be the same:

<spool_dir>/etc/config:

! CanonicalNumber: a unique string that is derived from all dialing
! strings to the same destination phone number.  This string is used

!
! DialString: the string passed to the modem for use in dialing the
! telephone.  This string should be void of any characters that might
! confuse the modem.

When I submit the fax I submit it as follows:

sendfax -n -T 3 -d 1112222 /etc/hosts

The "faxstat -rs" looks like this

The asterisk server we are using for relaying does it's routing on the
destination number, this number must be of the
<IDPrefix><CountryCode><AreaCode><Number>, hence the configuration of
the dialrules. If Asterisk does not see a number of this form it hangs
up the line, i assume this is why we get no dialtone when the modem
tries to dial that number.

Any additional tips or suggestions would be appreciated.
