[hylafax-users] SuSE Help

[michael hernandez <mikehernandez99@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello, 

I am new to Hylafax and have spent several hours trying to send a test fax and I am very lost at where to start troubleshooting.

I am running SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 SP1.  I recently installed Hylafax+ 5.2.2 via YaST from the OpenSuse repo:  
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/DocB/SLE_10/ 

I ran the faxsetup and faxaddmodem after installing Hylafax+.  I attempted to do a test fax via sendfax and the results are below.  Please advise on what else I need to do to finish Hylafax setup?  Also, the man pages for hosts.hfaxd says "Note also that this file must be readable only by the ``fax'' user; i.e. it should have mode 600 and be owned by ``fax''."  I do not have a user "fax." Instead the owner of hosts.hfaxd is "uucp - Unix to Unix Copy System" It is mode 600.  Please advise.

Regards,

-Mike
