Are you talking about Ciscos as T.38 gateways? They can be interesting, 
to say the least. :-) I never seem to find two that behave in quite the 
same way. Using my T.38 implementation with some Ciscos works well. With 
other Ciscos it won't work at all. Some are in between. If the target 
fax machine beyond the gateway is a Canon, things get more interestings, 
but then... well... its a bloody Canon at the far end. Can't blame Cisco 
too much there. :-)

I am still trying to get to the bottom of the what the key variables 
are. The snag is, I have to rely on assistance from the various people 
facing these boxes, and their enthusiasm waxes and wanes. I have 
considered trying to get hold of a cheap second hand Cisco box for 
testing. I've come to the conclusion this would be a waste of time, 
unless I could load it with a wide variety of software revisions and 
configurations, that mimic the setups causing problems.

Isn't interop fun? :-)
