I run a fax server with two moxa board and two netmos multiserial
board, total 24 external modems, linux ubuntu with 2.6 kernel. I'm
using hylafax 4.4.x and sending about 4k fax/day and never (and I mean
never since the server was installed) get any wedged modem, and it was
installed on 11 april 2007.

regards

Francesco
