Sumit -

If you made the changes as others on this list suggested - change RingsBeforeAnswer to 1 and then restarted Hylafax, you should look at:

1) is the modem registering a ring?
    running faxstat when the phone is ringing will show you that
      if not, look at the modem config file, put a real phone on that line and see if it rings or check with the modem manufacturer as necesary
2) is there anything showing up in the logs
   if faxstat shows that the modem is ringing, it will log that.
   if faxstat is setup to answer, it will log that it is attempting to answer
   if it does answer the phone, but no call gets through, you should get an error message that will help in further troubleshooting
        again I would check the modem config file if it stops here.

logs - hylafax usually is setup to log to the general syslog ( /var/log/messages in RHEL) the generic details like phone ringing, answering etc
       - hylafax has a more detailed session log in /var/spool/hylafax/logs that gets generated if faxgetty answers a call.

Good luck,
