I created a file "jobcontrol-intl.sh" and I put the above in it, chmod
755 the file and put inside the /var/spool/fax/bin  folder.

I edited my /var/spool/fax/etc/config  file and I added 3 modem groups.

ModemGroup: "modemgroup1:ttyS0"
ModemGroup: "modemgroup2:ttyS1"
ModemGroup: "defaultmodemgroup:any"
JobControlCmd: bin/jobcontrol-intl.sh

I restarted hylafax+ (v 1.5.11) and restarted faxgetty on both devices.

When I send an email with 1 user acount. it still alternates on both
ttyS0 and ttyS1 as if the modem groups never took into affect. When I
look at the logs it just looks the same for both sessions. One gets
sent on ttys0 the other on ttys1. Shouldn't both faxes wait and be
sent on ttys0 ? Are there more configuration options I am missing
perhaps?

Thanks
