Re: [hylafax-users] Configure Hylafax.



Gerard,

 

The version can be found by typing

Faxstat –i

 

If you already have Hylafax and the modem receiving faxes you’re almost done.  All you need to do is create (or edit if it already exists) the FaxDispatch file in the /var/spool/fax/etc/ directory.   In this file type two lines:

 

SENDTO=datafax@xxxxxxxxxx                              

FILETYPE=pdf;

 

You’re done! Incoming faxes will now be routed to the email of your choice.

 

If you’re having difficulties not receiving faxes, you’ll have to be more specific with the issues.

 

Thanks

Lucas

Subject: [hylafax-users] Configure Hylafax.

 

Hi,

 

    I am completely new to Hylafax so forgive me if I don't provide all the details necessary.  I need to set up a mail account that can recieve faxes.  We are currently using sendmail as our mail server.  We are running Hylafax on Solaris 9 (SPARC).    I have no idea how to get the version of Hylafax we are using.  I have searched for the hylfax.alpha file but found nothing.

 

Basically the set up we have is that pdf's are faxed to us on a certain number and then they are forwarded to the email address datafax@xxxxxxxxxx.  I need to be able to configure Hylafax to recieve the faxes from a new number that we have to set up.  These faxes will be coming from a different country.  So basically I need to set up a Hylafax to recieve faxes from this number and forward them on to datafax@xxxxxxxxxx.  Below is the directories where we have Hylafax set up.  If you need anymore information please let me know.  Your help is greatly appreciated. 

 

/var/spool/fax/config

 

/opt/hylafax

 

Thanks.

 

Kind regards,

 

Gerard
