I can only think of two things permissions related:

1) the usual file permissions read, write, execute handled with chmod, 
chown, and

2) selinux permissions

Otherwise make sure that FaxAccounting is in 
/var/spool/hylafax/etc/FaxAccounting and is marked executable by the 
user account under which faxgetty/faxsend runs (i.e. the same as what 
xferfaxlog is owned by).
