FreeBSD Hylafax quick install
/usr/ports/print/ghostscript-gnu-nox11
make install
/usr/ports/shells/bash ( Hylafx like bash ? )
make install
/usr/ports/comms/hylafax
make install
(It is better clean it up after install, so it is better be "make install clean".)
In FreeBsd, a easier way is using its package manager like "pkg_add" or "portmaster" It will automatically check and install all necessary ports.
pkg_add -r hylafax
next run hylafax setup:
/usr/local/sbin/faxsetup
run modem setup within faxsetup or run
(For serial port modem connection, it should start with cuadx, while "x" is 0 or other numbers.)
/usr/local/sbin/faxaddmodem
You have installed and basic configured hylafax.
Config directory : /var/spool/hylafax/etc
Autostart the hylafax daemon at freebsd 5/6/7.x
It is no need to edit /etc/rc.conf, just Copy the hylafax.sh.sample to /usr/local/etc/rc.d/hylafax.sh
