HylaFAX is an enterprise-class system for sending and receiving
|
|
facsimiles as well as for sending alpha-numeric pages.The software
|
|
is designed around a client-server architecture. Fax modems may
|
|
reside on a single machine on a network and clients can submit
|
|
an outbound job from any other machine on the network.
|
|
|
|
Client software is designed to be lightweight and easy to port.
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you need to start hylafax at boot
|
|
edit /etc/rc.d/rc.local and add the lines:
|
|
|
|
script:
|
|
# Starting the HylaFAX hfaxd and faxq Daemons at Boot.
|
|
if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.hylafax ]; then
|
|
/etc/rc.d/rc.hylafax start
|
|
fi
|
|
|
|
Edit /etc/inittab and add a line(s) similar to:
|
|
|
|
m0:2345:respawn:/usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyS0
|
|
|
|
where 'm0' is unique in inittab and 'ttyS0' matches the device
|
|
name(s) used at the outset of the faxaddmodem script.
|
|
|
|
With root permissions, execute '/usr/sbin/faxsetup'.
|
|
When finished, faxsetup will automatically run faxaddmodem
|
|
for you. Generally, you can follow all of the defaults
|
|
except those for FaxMaster, the local fax number(s), TSI,
|
|
and any modem-specific information in faxaddmodem.
|
|
|
|
It would be wise to run faxcron and faxqclean regularly
|
|
from cron so that the queue directories do not clutter
|
|
up and fill the storage device. Many installations run
|
|
faxqclean every hour and faxcron every day. Insert
|
|
something like this into your uucp or root crontab file:
|
|
|
|
0 * * * * /usr/sbin/faxqclean
|
|
0 0 * * * /usr/sbin/faxcron | mail -s "HylaFAX Usage Report" faxmaster
