It depends on the package that you installed.

The HylaFAX package that comes with Debian/Ubuntu is highly 
"Debian-ized".  So /etc/default/hylafax is part of that.

The HylaFAX+ packages distributed at the Sourceforge site are more true 
to the default HylaFAX installations (from source) except that the 
installation paths may be in /usr instead of /usr/local.

So when dealing with HylaFAX packages that come with Debian/Ubuntu 
distribution you'll have to refer to documentation in the distribution.  
When dealing with HylaFAX+ packages that come from the Sourceforge site 
then the documentation at that site and most other traditional HylaFAX 
documentation applies.

So, in other words, faxgetty should normally be started from 
/etc/inittab.  See:
