NAME
faxquit - tell a HylaFAX server to terminate
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/faxquit
[
-q
queue-dir
] [
modem
]
DESCRIPTION
faxquit
sends a message to a HylaFAX server process
telling it to quit operation.
If
modem
is specified, the
faxgetty(8C)
process servicing the specified modem is notified.
modem
can either be the name (typically the
last component of the terminal port the
modem is attached to), or the full name
of the associated
FIFO
named pipe file, e.g. ``FIFO.ttym2''.
If no modem is specified,
faxquit
will send the request to the ``FIFO'' named pipe file
causing the HylaFAX queue manager process to terminate.
Note that server processes may not terminate immediately.
In particular the
faxq
process will not exit until any active jobs are completed;
this is necessary for proper operation (faxq
must wait for child processes to terminate so that it can
collect their exit status and update the state of the
jobs being operated on).
