Hi

I have Hylafax installed on a Debian/Linux system. 
Apparently everything works fine - except that I have problems running
UUCP on the same modem.

Hylafax apparently prefers to run 38400 bps, but I want to run 115200
(the default speed for the modem).

I've changed to setup scripts to recognize the 115200 bps. Everything
seems to be correct - but after a UUCP session, Hylafax cannot
communicate with the modem. 

Has anybody experience with this?

Thank you in advance.

Unfortunately I've mislaid the web page reference and the main Hylafax

please fix!), but in the meantime there are many articles like this in
the archives...

In your modem config file change add this line:
AT+FNR=3D1,1,1,0

It will stop the modem reporting bad frames which is causing this:

>Oct 03 11:21:08.03: [17195]: --> [16:+FNF:=B5=1B+FCI:" 50]

The bad frame +FNF is being badly reported, it should not be on the same
line as the +FCI response which gives the remote fax no.

..and gives up.

Note if the above doesn't work you might need to setup the modem as Class 1

Subject: flexfax: Maximum ModemRate?
From: John Conover <conover@inow.com>
To: flexfax@sgi.com
Sender: owner-flexfax@celestial.com


I have a USR 33.6 Faxmodem Sportster running in Class 1, with faxgetty(1)
for fax I/O, PPP I/O, and UUCP I/O. Changing config.cua1 from:

    ModemRate:              38400

to:
    
    ModemRate:              57600

makes the modem go away-it can't initialize, (can't deduce modem type.)

Is it possible to use this at 57600, or is this some kind of a violation?

	Thanks,

	John

BTW, the system is Linux, hardware flow control, config.cua1 is attached.
The system works reasonably well at 38400.

I am having a problem which we had with version 4.0pl0 from BSDi 3.1, after
which I upgraded to 4.0pl2 (with some doing).  Now I'm having the problem
again in 4.0pl2.  I never had the problem when we were on BSDi 2.0, it only
started after we upgraded to 3.1.

The problem is that it does not process the pages.  The faxstat queues show
0:0 pages for every job.  This is intermittent and it will work for several
days, then it gets stuck and I have to kill and restart faxq to get it going
again.  But I need to get it fixed right.

I remember once before I had found some error saying something about not
being able to convert the file to tiff or something, but even with the
servertracing I've enabled now, I don't seem to find that error.  What
servertracing values should I have in the config file and in the hfaxd.conf
(?) file to track down this problem?

Here's what faxstat shows when it's in this state:

root@vtcom3:/var/spool/fax/etc faxstat -sd

Yes, faxgetty is running.  I have tried killing faxgetty to get it to
recycle, but this doesn't solve the problem.  Have to kill and restart faxq
to get it working again.

I have SuSE 5.3 and have loaded Hylafax from this distribution. After
configuring with faxsetup how do you set the fax program to answer the

OK, Over the weekend I tried setting HylaFAX up on one of my home Linux
systems and experienced the same sort of Unspecified Transmit Phase B error
with the same USR Sportster type of modem.

Finally I set the modem up as Class 1 instead of the Class 2.0 it claimed
it could also support. That made a big improvement. At that point it was
successfully dialing and connecting with the remote fax machine but the
pages it sent through were squished. In looking through the docs and
archives I seem where someone suggested turning down the ModemRate from
38400 to 19200 on Sportster modems. Once I did that the pages transmitted
were near perfect. The only problem was that even though the cover page
was sent & received fine, there was some sort of glitch when the next
page was sent. It would continue resending the next page a number of
times (I never let it go more than 9 or 10 resends before removing the
job). What was strange was that each time it would resend it the page
would be squished more and more. The first time it sent the page it
appeared full size but midway down there was a break/glitch in the image
(I was testing with the golfer.ps example that comes with the ghostscript
stuff).

Sunday evening I came in to work late and tried the same Class 1 & 19200
setup with the Sportster on the HP-UX system and was able to send one
fax through just fine to a fax machine here on site. Then I sent a
second copy after the first completely cleared the queue but the modem
appeared to be hung and would not reset. Even turning it off & on or
stopping & restarting the HylaFAX stuff had no effect on it.

The end result of this is to persuade me to move to the suggested
MultiTech MT1432BA modems for additional testing with the HP-UX
systems at work. So far those seem to work fine right out of the
box so to speak.

If anyone has any ideas why the re-transmit problem seems to occur and
the pages gets squished more and more each time it is re-transmitted
I would appreciate know about that.

I am guessing but this looks like some kind of flow control problem -
double check everything is either rts/cts or xon/xoff.  A log from the fax
transmission can tell this for sure.

Again i am guessing but the speed reduction might have allowed the modem to
send enough data  down the phone line that it didn't need to interrupt the
DCE at first - it was only later that you paid for it.

Reset the modem to factory defaults at&f, it might have a bad profile
loaded.  Did you try fuser on the serial port - with the multiple device
files cul, tty and cua it is really easy to have faxgetty on one and
uugetty on the other which sometimes causes stuff like this.

Again double check everything is consistent regarding flow control. ie the
modems config file, the output of stty and the modem itself.

Umm - the factory settings of the multitech might default to rts/cts while
the Sportster is set to xon/off....either that or the Sportsters is way broken.

It tries to retransmit, usually because the receiving fax has indicated the
previous page you sent was corrupt.  I am thinking they are getting more
and more squished because the flow control is out of control.

Could you produce a log of the transmission?

Hi Barry,

I am not an expect on SCO - its been a long time :-)

However I seem to remember the command "enable" is a bit of a hack. It
is probably digging around in inittab looking for a standard getty
entry. Not finding it, it comes up with this message. Your best bet is
to edit /etc/inittab directly - change the "off" to "respawn" and then
run "telinit -q" to get init to re-read it.

System is SCO Open Server Enterprise 5.0.4.
HylaFAX is v4.0pl2.

The command,

	faxgetty -D ttybF

works fine.  However, I cannot spawn faxgetty from inittab.

I'm not subscribe to this list so please respond to brian@litzinger.com

I've been using Hylafax for years.  I've run into a fax machine which
I just can't successfully send more than 1 page to.  It is a nice
modern HP multifunction fax, printer, copier, etc.  I've been sending
faxes for years to a myriad of faxes.

I'm running:

HylaFAX v4.0pl2
FreeBSD -current,elf,CAM,SMP
gcc 2.7.2
ZyXEL 1496E with 6.12 firmware

If I send the machine a 2 page fax, or coversheet + 1 page, I get

Nov 04 03:25:11.95: [14694]: SENT 13269 bytes of data
Nov 04 03:25:11.95: [14694]: SEND 1D RTC

Nov 04 03:25:34.28: [14694]: --> [20:+FCS:0,3,0,2,0,0,0,5]

The HP ends up with a fine copy of the 1st page.  In fact, it will
end up with 9 copies, as  Hylafax tries 3 times, and each try
tries to send the 1st page 3 times.  I've since been using '-t 1'.

Any ideas what is wrong?

It's the RTN (Retrain Negative) which is causing the problem. Apparently
Hylafax sends some junk that it shouldn't somewhere. Most fax machines
ignore, but some get upset and want to reduce the speed of the
connection (RTN). I don't think Hylafax wants to do that - so bombs out.

There's a patch to fix the junk on
http://www.elgro.demon.co.uk/patchlist.html

See if that helps.

I tried the tagline patch and I am still having the same problem.  I

Also got 3 reports from others experiencing the problem, though
not necessarily with the same type destination fax machine.

Hmm. I would be interested in investigating this. Is there any way you
could send me the
telephone number (Not on the list though) and would they mind if I tried
sending a few pages from my modem?

I have a different modem (Multi-Tech) and I would be interested to see
if this is a modem or a software problem. It seems so repeatable that it
doubt it is just line noise. I know the standard answer has just been to
revert to Class 1 operation, presumuably because the modem is not doing
the right thing in Class 2 and Hylafax would do a better job. However
Class 1 requires the s/w to do much more handholding of the protocol
than class 2.

I should add that I am not an expert with Hylafax, but I am willing to
dive into the code if required.

Actually I am not sure what I said earlier about RTN was right. Maybe
one of the protocol experts can jump in and explain. Looking at the
log:-

Presumuably this is the remote saying (through the modem) it got an
error.

> > > > Nov 04 03:25:28.27: [14694]: SEND recv RTN (retrain negative)

Is this Hylafax announcing its intention to *send* an RTN (drop the
speed) to the modem?

> > > > Nov 04 03:25:28.27: [14694]: <-- [7:AT+FDT\r]

Is this Hylafax actually send the RTN is AT commands?

> > > > Nov 04 03:25:34.28: [14694]: --> [20:+FCS:0,3,0,2,0,0,0,5]

Is this the reply from the modem to the request for an RTN? Anyone know
what it means? Is there an error in there that Hylafax should be picking
up?

I'm not sure about this, but didn't some make a patch (or say he was
working on one) to force HylaFAX to retrain at a lower speed in class
2/2.0?

Did this get anywhere?

ok from above:
1)Hylafax sent the page to the modem(13269 bytes) and hopefully the modem
sent it to the receiving fax.
2)Hylafax sent the RTC - which is a special sequence of bytes that tell the
fax at the other end the page is finished.  If the page data transfer is
out of control the receiving end can wait for this series of bytes to
appear on line to regain control of the session.
3)Hylafax sent the end of page which is a <dle> char + <mps> char to tell
the modem that the page was finished and we want to send more pages, it can
also send <eop> for no more pages to come.  The modem sends this to the
other fax machine.
4)The receiving modem then replies Message ConFirmation if everything is ok
to go ahead or if things went bad a number of error codes like ReTrain
Positve, Retrain Negative or a bunch of other errors.
MCF - stay in phase C do next page
RTP - go back into phase B renegotiate session then send next page(ie got
prev page)
RTN - go back into phase B renegotiate session then send same page
again.(ie did *not* get prev page)

The receiving modem has sent this because it hasn't got the previous page
properly, which could be for alot of different reasons like line noise,
trying to send a badly encoded document, some kind of buffer overrun
somewhere on the way.

Hylafax is telling the modem to go back into phase b to renegotiate the
session.  In this situation Hylafax's class1 driver will automatically drop
the maximum speed of the connection, which will help if the cause of the
problem is line noise.  The class 2 driver tries again at the same speed.
Dropping speed will not help if the doc is badly encoded(except for some
receiving fax machines when the speed is lowered to 2400 will not reply
with a RTN and accept the page no matter what).

This is the result of the phase b session - the new session parameters for
sending the next page.

oh, that would be me.

Here it is fairly untested but does seem to work.  Apply this patch to the
util/Class2Send.c++ file in the hylafax distribution and rebuild.  It will
help when the cause of the problem is line noise, or you are trying to
force the session down to 2400 where some fax machines seem willing to
accept the document.

Hi Brian,

If at all possible try with a different modem, about a month ago there i
helped someone else with a similar problem(he was using a Zyxel
1496E/6.19), it still is not properly resolved but it is looking very much
like the modem, i sent a document to the same location using a Courier
which went though fine.

The other alternative i guess is to try and set it up as Class 1

You can send to my fax for testing:
714-903-2578

If possible, please add my name "Steven Pham" to the header.

Please let me know if you can send a complete fax without any
problem.

In my case, if I send one page fax, I'll get 3 copies since
Hylafax tried to send 3 times before giving up.

If I send more than one page, Hylafax will send the first page
then got disconnected and it will try to dial again to send the
second page !

PS. I also fix the Tagline but it didn't help.

I can post my log file it you need it...

Thanks,

Steven

Phil,
Here you go. Requirements are pretty simple, the macro expects the fax
queue to be named HylaFAX. It can be changed within the macro to anything
they desire but the default is HylfaFAX. It has only been tested on Word97.

Aside from this, usage instructions are the same as for the original link
as shipped from Goldmine Software.

Regards,
Edward

Subject: flexfax: Hylafax - Multiple modems
Sender: owner-flexfax@celestial.com

Hi there.  Here is my configuration:

Hylafax:     4.0pl2
Compiler:    gcc 2.8.1
System:      Linux 2.0.34
Modems:      USR Courier and USR Sportster

I am currently using Hylafax with much success (after a few compile
problems), but nontheless, it works fine now.  I can receive faxes, send
faxes and send alpha numeric pages.

I can do all of this with BOTH my Courier and Sportster modems connected
to ttyS0

When I connect both modems up, 1 to ttyS0 and 1 to ttyS1, I can access
both modems fine using a dialup internet connection.

I have run the faxaddmodem and am using the faxgetty program in my
configuration.

Here is some output of my faxstat:

Warning, No "hylafax" service definition, using default 4559/tcp.
HylaFAX scheduler on charon.compusult.nf.ca: Running
Modem ttyS0 (1-709-745-7924): Running and idle
Modem ttyS1 (1-709-745-7956): Running and idle

My problem is that when I send 5 or 6 fax jobs using:

echo "This is a test" | sendfax -d <faxnumber>

All the jobs go out through the modem connected to ttyS0.  I was under
the impression that when a fax job is received, it is sent to the first
available modem.  It appears as though my modem on ttyS1 doesn't attempt
to send anything at all.  It just sits there "Running and idle"
forever.  Is there something I am missing to tell Hylafax to use both of
these modems?

Thank you
Jason Bennett

Subject: flexfax: getty hanging up line
Sender: owner-flexfax@celestial.com

I have set up HylaFAX using the Redhat rpm on a Redhat 5.1 system with
(from what I can tell-I inherited this modem with no documentation) an
Exar modem.  Upon running faxsetup and faxaddmodem, the modem seems to
be setup correctly by accepting the default settings - software flow
control.  To then test the installation, I ran faxmodem to manually
assign cua1 as an available modem.  I was able to send a test postscript
document with excellent results.  I then decided it was time to install
faxgetty as I also wanted to be able to log into this machine, and, at
some later time, receive faxes.  I told faxgetty to monitor ttyS1 (also
have tried cua1).  According the the syslog, it was able to detect the
type of call (fax or data) each time.  The fax receive started to work
until encountering some phase B errors (not sure what all that is but am
leaving this until later).  When trying to dial in for a login prompt,
the modem detects a data call, starts up the getty program, which,
according to the logs, immediately hangs up the phone.  Here is the
output:

Nov 03 21:59:31.41 [ 9297]: SESSION BEGIN 00000038 17145551919

Nov 03 21:59:47.84 [ 9297]: SESSION END

I have checked the gettydefs file and even run uugetty (only seemed to
work with ttyS1) to check that I could get a login prompt and it worked
fine.  This all leads me to believe that I haven't got the faxgetty set
up correctly.  GettyArgs is as follows:GettyArgs:	"-h %l %s".  Not sure
what else controls startup of Getty.  Does anyone know what is causing
this?

Sender: owner-flexfax@celestial.com

Hi.

I recently started developing another Client for Windows 95/98 - mainly
because I
didn't like the user interface of WHFC (I still get mad at not being able to
properly
resize the windows :-)).

Right now I'm done with sending/receiving/viewing faxes and want to tackle
the
rest. I was wondering what feature people really need/like:

- Do you actually use OLE Support? (won't be in first release for sure)
- Do you need real Database Access for the Phonebook? (I don't need it and
having
  to install all the database drivers, be they microsoft's or inprise's,
really annoys me)
- Any other features that were forgotten in WHFC & co.?

And finally, are there any documents describing the client protocoll of
hfaxd? I couldn't
find anything except the hfaxd man pages and the quote "think basically ftp
and throw
in a bit of job management". I think I figured it out, but I would like to
make sure my
implementation is at least halfway correct.

FYI, the client will be free, released with sourcecode for Borland (Inprise,
sorry)
Delphi 3 - the premier RAD environment for windows - as soon as it's
finished.

bye, Paul.

While the WHFC interface may have a few quirks, we are using pretty much
all of its options.

OLE support is a necessary evil if you wish to automate the product for
usage with third-party tools.

The ODBC functionality is also being used here to interface to our existing
customer database in
Goldmine. I've setup the necessary drivers and when one clicks on the
phonebook, WHFC opens
all the contacts listed in the database w/current info. 

Having ODBC connectivity allows us to keep only one source of information
and makes maintenace
much easier as well.

Here's a small bomb for you... instead of ODBC database support, I've often
wished that WHFC or whatever had the capability to use LDAP as a phone
directory.  I suppose even a link to the Windows Address Book would be cute,
but the LDAP capability against the company directory servers would be cool.

Hi,

i have released WHFC 1.0.2 which has two new OLE calls
(the same as in my Beta 1.1.0). For a description
see the ole pages in the WHFC documentation 

There are no bugfixes, so download is only needed, if you 
need the new OLE calls.

Ahh, yes! This explains it. You need the zlib package, which is an
optional part of several dozen different things, including
ghostscript.

I think you could use the ghostscript package from there or the
HylaFAX and ghostscript packages from
http://cirl.meei.harvard.edu/hylafax/sun, which are slightly more
up to date the last time I looked.

Phase B is the phase in which the two fax machines negotiate the options
and parameters to use.  Probably 50% of failures are in this phase, so
Phase B error is of little diagnostic value with the underlying error.

Hi Hylafax Gurus,

I'm running the hylafax-sparc-sunos5.5-v4.0pl1-pkg binary distribution of
HYLAFAX on Solaris 2.6. It was working fine before, but after I installed
the suggested patches from SUN, it won't work anymore. (Really Dumn move.)

So I re-installed the binary distribution.  Now I can make the faxing
working fine, but paging won't work. It only tell me that "No carrier
detected". I'm doing everything exactly the same as before, except it's a
different phone line.  I'm confused why it was working before, but not
working now.  Would paging wait for a carrier? Does the telecom's modem
make life different?

Also, if I'm only running on one machine, is HYLAserv package enough for
running the system?  Do I need to install both HYLAserv and HYLAclnt on
the same machine?

Thank you very much for any answers!

I have set up HylaFAX 4.0p12-3 using the Redhat rpm on a Linux 2.0.35
system with an Exar modem.  Documentation says that inbound calls are

modems hangs up each time immediately after answering the telephone. 
Here is the output:

maybe I should switch to mgetty+sendfax.  I would be very grateful to
anyone who could help.  Thanks.

Hi, I'm using Hylafax 4.02 on a Linux Redhat machine.

I installed the software without problem (a RPM distribution). I've got the server running and am able to send faxes to the server from clients (using WHFC on WIN95 machine). But making the modem connection seems to be the problem. Whet i use Faxstat i get the message that the "server is running" and "waiting for the modem to become ready" and after a while the modem becomes "wedged". When i look in my syslog file i get the message that there is a parse error in the dailrules file. More specific there is a problem when setting the identifiers. I get the message that the program expect a "=" or an ":=" after the "A". This is in the line "Area=${Areacode}".

I've tried installing on two different machines, with different modems, but with the same result.

Can anybody help me?

You need to use faxaddmodem to choose/create an appropriate config file for 
your modem.

Have you edited this file? Seems very sloppy for an RPM.

You should tell us more about your modem as well - it's highly relevant. If you are as desperate as you say you are, give us something to chew on please, so that we may help you.

Exit status zero means it terminated normally (well thats the standard).
Have you checked the syslog (/var/log/messages) for anything from getty?
You might also want to up the syslog logging level so that you can see
what getty is doing.

You might also like to try getting the incoming data connection working
without Hylafax in the way. If nothing else it is a great learning
experience :-). Checkout the Serial-HOWTO.

Subject: flexfax: sendfax initialisation problem
Sender: owner-flexfax@celestial.com

Hi,

I'm developing a little php3 script in order to have a html frontend to
Hylafax.

When the script is completely finished, it should be possible to select
the destinary from a HTML dropdown menu (connected to a postgres RDBMS
-that's what I'm using) and all outgoing fax' would as well be stored in
a RDBMS table so that searching the archive is more easy.

But I'm having one problem untill now with sendfax.

The php script calls sendfax directly, so that we can choose all options
ourselves.

So according to the man pages the commandline construct should be :

sendfax[-options] file

The php script creates for every outgoing fax a /tmp/fax.<$time> file
and is called in the script by $fax ($fax = "/tmp/fax.$time"; $time =
time() - we used this in order to make every fax.*file "unique) 

Now when we call sendfax [-options] $fax, sendfax hangs
But when we call sendfax [options] /tmp/fax.94512356, this works,
allthough $fax refers to the same file ...

Is there a workaround?

Is there a way that sendfax would accept input from STDIN so that we
could do something like this 
This would even be faster/cleaner to do.

$message = <HTML form entered message>;
$command = "sendfax [options]";

#now we execute the external program
 
passthru(more $message | $command);

Looking forwards for your input.

Hi,

can you start whfc manually for this user and have you done
this for every user , because whfc must run once manually for
every user, because there are some initializations nessesary
for OLE. Also do you have installed whfc on a network drive 
and this drive is mapped to different characters for each user ?
If so, whfc must reside on the same drive character for each user.

I can start whfc manually for normal users and also send faxes from
whfc. When starting WHFC.OleSrv I got this
CreateObject error : "no such file or directory" but whfc is started
for this user.
The drive where whfc is installed is a local drive.
The same error I get for local users and domain users on this 
workstation.

Hi,

can this users send faxes via the fax printer feature ? and are
there some special "security" options enabled on your Domain 
Controller ?

I also tried to call other OLE-applications ( excel ) by perl-script
and got the same result. But I cannot find an entry in the registry
which should deny access ( I also looked at the security ). May
be someone knows which entry is missing or wrong.

If the user want to send fax via fax printer WHFC is started and 
I get an error message from whfcmon "WHFC-Ole Server not found".

I also installed WHFC on another WS. There sending faxes by
perl-script for all users ( local and domain ) is okay but 
printing via fax printer is only possible for administrator.
For other users I got the same result as written above.

Whats the difference between the two calls of this OLE-server?

Hi,

there are no differences between the OLE calls which the fax printer
uses and those you use on perl, but the fax printer runs under the
"security" context of the windows spooling system (haven't figured out
or found documentation what security context this is).

This is definitly an access problem to your registry. At this point
i must leave you alone with this problem. Have a look at the
documentation
for the WHFC Registry entries and on the OLE "Documentation" of
Microsoft
and try to figure out, which parts of the registry may cause the
problem.

Just now I found the reasons :
On the first WS there was a registry entry
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Ole\DefaultAccessPermission
 ( dont know where it came from )
I deleted it and first WS was okay.

The second WS had only SP1 . After updating to SP3 everything
is okay.

    Thanks for all your answers

I am running HylaFAX on RH5.1 with the WHFC on my workstation... 
I commented to Ulrich on the long delay when waitng for a delete from
either the WHFC or from Linux "faxrm"

The delays on my system coinside with a lot of IP-traffic mostly looking
up nameserver... port 53... and because I have diald blocked while I fax
out... it takes a full cycle of named timeouts before I get a response.

Can any body suggest why... or how to find out?

Sounds like you need a caching name server on your RH box, or maybe find
a way to frig it so that the RH box is an authorative nameserver for
your little net - i.e. avoid name lookups going onto the net. Its a
tricky problem - DNS doesn't work very well in this situation.

Sender: owner-flexfax@celestial.com

Hi,

I have hylafax v4.0pl2 running quite successfully on Solaris (sparc).
Just recently, I modified our procedure so that incoming faxes, once
dealt with are moved automatically to ~fax/archive.  The matter of
'procedure' and 'dealt with' are irrelevant to my problem, so I wont
mention them here.

Everything works fine, but the archive directory is needless to say,
getting very large, so I slightly modified the procedure to move the
faxes to sub-directories, eg :-

~fax/archive/fax0/06/fax00605.tif

The mail goes out with the correct url
(ftp://host:4559/archive/fax0/06/fax00605.tif) but hfaxd will not allow
remote clients access to any sub directories of /archive.

I see this must be controlled in hfaxd/FileSystem.c++, but before I
hack on it, has anyone done anything similar that would allow hfaxd
to descend /archive ?  or maybe can someone suggest another way?

Thanks in advance.

The standard USA one should work OK, providing you have your own area
code right. Have you played with dialtest? It should help you track most
problems.

Hello,


i run Hylafax 4.0p2 on a Debian 2.0 with a  MODEM ROCKWELL
AC/V34/V1.510-V34_DS.
Sending Faxes works fine, but i have problems to revieve them.
When someone send me a facsimilie, the modem answers, but doesnt start
to recieve the fax.
First i got a TSI-Rejection reportet, but this error doesn`t appear
anymore, because
i created a file /etc/tsi. 
This is still empty, could this cause the error ??

Thanx in advance

Hi,

You should either remove the 'QualifyTSI' line from the config file to
receive FAX from any caller or enter TSI of acceptable callers in the file
'etc/tsi'.

Please read the 'Rejecting Junk Facsimile' section in the document and the
'config' man page.

Hello,
Has anyone ever encountered the ANSWER: CID REJECT with a USR 56k modem and
found a solution?

My etc/cid contains the catch-all "^.*$" and HylaFAX continues to reject
*all* callers. The CIDNumber has been properly setup to "NMBR = " and
CIDName to "NAME = ".

Are there any known problems with the USRs and the CID functions. I've
downloaded the list archives and still was not able to find a solution.

Enabling server tracing also did not shed any new insight on this problem.
Is there a tracing number that would show all interaction between the modem
and server, including the incoming CID text?

Regards,
Edward

Subject: flexfax: Q:hide secrect keys in dialstring by fax server 
Sender: owner-flexfax@celestial.com

Hello,

I am facing the following problem: Some folks at out university want to
send their faxes using WHFC. Basically it works fine. The problem is,
that some of our emplyees need to include secret information in the
dialstring that should not be visible doing a faxstat -s. 
As far as  I understand the docs the dialstring processing for the
external representation of the number (what faxstat will display) is
done by the client application and not by the fax server. Using sendfax
for sending faxes this works if you put a suitable dialstring file in
/usr/local/lib/fax (some installations prefer /usr/lib/fax instead).

To keep off private infos from the dialstring using WHFC only WHFC can
do this when sending a fax. As far as I know WHFC is unable to process a
dialrules file like sendfax does and so leaves the dialstring untouched.
Since the server does not change the externel representation of a
dialstring the secret information is always visible to anyone looking at
the sendqueue. 

So what chance do I have to get rid of the private information in the
dialstring when using a client like whfc that does not allow processing
of the dialstring? I first thought that this task is actually a duty of
the server. The server would be the best place to hide such information
to the clients like faxstat 
asking. But it seems there is no way to tell the server to hide some
dialstring information from a client? Or am I wrong?

Any solutions known?

Thank you very much
Rainer

Hi,

I've started developping (at first for personal needs) a simple webfront
to Hylafax using PHP3.

At present it is VERY basic, but we intend to add e.g.
databaseconnectivity for 
fax storage, adress management, logging ...

If anyone is interested I'd be glad to make the scriptingcode available.

Rgds.
Didier

We had the same problem using SCO 3.2.4.2 here.

When using "sendfax -n -d12345 <file>" and there exist any "umloud" in
<file>, sendfax returns an error "cannot determine filetype".

When we print/fax from our Informix-Application using EPSON or LASERJET
ESC-Sequences, we use an epson2ps or laserjet2ps converter. 
So when "cat <file> | epson2ps | sendfax -n -d12345", sendfax does not
return any error, but german "umlouds" nevertheless are not transmitted
correctly via modem to a nearby faxmachine.

In the SCO distibution, there is a util called "unix2dos" which
translates these "umlouds" correctly, so "cat <file> | unix2dos |
epson2ps | sendfax -n -d12345" works pretty well!

Perhaps youve got some of these utils on your unix system too, this
worked for me so far and I do not matter why it works ;)

best regards, so far
hope this may help a little bit

Moo-ha-ha! Read the Linux and SunOS installation notes at
http://cirl.meei.harvard.edu/hylafax/.

I'm still having issues trying to get an el-cheapo 33.6 to work for dialup,
but my other 14.4 modems work just fine this way.

They *SHOULD* be owned by the fax user. Change the RecvFileMode to be
0644 in your local config files to permit other people to see them,
and Read The Fine Manual on the "config" files.

I actually had to set the permissions on my system to 0666.  0664 worked
except for some strange instances.  Once I set it to 0666, it has worked
flawlessly.

Here are the permission setting I use:
RecvFileMode:	0666
LogFileMode:	0666
DeviceMode:	0600

I'm running Slackware 3.5, 2.0.34.

Thanks for making the software available.  :)

Compiling hylafax under a relatively clean solaris 2.6 (sparc), gcc
2.8.1, libstdc++, libg++-2.8.1.1a required a few minor modifications.

Presumably because it was solaris 2.6:

LIBTIFF="-L/usr/local/lib -ltiff -R /usr/local/lib"


Presumably because it was libg++ 2.8.x:

ln -s /usr/local/include/g++ /usr/local/lib/g++-include


Presumably because it was gcc 2.8.x (context diff patch for patch -p0):

Couple of other Windows TIFF viewers you can try :-

Irfanview32 by Irfan Skiljan
           Available in English and German versions. Free to non-
           commercial use. See http://stud1.tuwien.ac.at/~e9227474

Tiffview by Terry Haddock  
           Can be used as a helper program for Netscape. Homepage is
           at http://www.mis2.udel.edu/~terence/tiffview. It has been
           mentioned that it can handle 2-D encoded tiff G3 format 
           images, but fails on the aspect ratio with fine resolution 
           faxes. 

Please let us know how you get on,

Throw this *OUT*. Proceed directly to v4.0pl2 available from various

Here is my config.ttya for this modem.
Let me know if it works for you.

I force the lower speed 9600, since I had problem

How can I make the resolution of my outbound faxes higher.  Right now,
they look pretty bad.  When I fax stuff to my Mac, it says the incoming
document is "Low Resolution"....

Is it possible to bump this up?


Thanks,
Mike

Use the -m option to sendfax.

I used this and it seemed to have no affect on the resolution....  could it
be my modem?

I don't know. I guess it could be. Try changing to class 1 operation if
that makes a difference it is your modem.

If, as described, they are on seperate modems, there is no problem;
just run faxgetty on the hylafax modem and read the documentation for
your pppd implementation for the other modem.

Subject: flexfax: HELP: My hylafax won't send
Sender: owner-flexfax@celestial.com

Hello all,

I desperately need some advice on the following problem.

I'm running HylafaxV4.0pl1 with US Robotics 56K fax modem connected to a
DGII PortServer 8 terminal
server.  Everythin worked fine through the terminal server with the 56 K
fax modem when it was
installed it on a Sparc 5 machine running Solaris 2.6.  Yesterday, after
all the testing,
I moved the fax modem and the terminal server and connected them to a
production unit Netra
unning Solaris 2.6.  Fax can be received, however I CAN'T send anything
out.  It keeps complaining that
line is busy.  The only difference I can tell is that the phone system
where the production unit locates is
on PABX whereas the test I've done in the lab has all the normal phone
lines i.e. in the production building,
I need to dial 9 in order to gain access to phone lines whereas I don't
need to do the same thing in the test lab.

The next thing I tried is to hylafax totally out of the picture first in
order to isolate the problem.  I stopped the hylafax
processes and perform "tip /dev/term/a003" into the modem (that's the new
device ID after terminal server is
installed).  When I issued the modem command : ATDT15552262299.  The modem
also returned me that the
line is BUSY, which it shouldn't be.

What might be the problem?  Am I supposed to issue a delay after dialing 9.
I know it's not even the problem
with hylafax since hylafax was not enabled and still I got the same error.
I guess it's more modem related.
Please excuse me 'cause I don't know a lot about modem commands.  What
should I try?

I believe in this case, the terminal server shouldn't cause any problem
since it used to be working with the same
settings.  The only difference here, as far as I can tell, is the
difference in phone system.

Please, please any insight on the problem will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you all for your attention and patience.

Sandie

Proceed directly to v4.0pl2 for update and security reasons. There are
also some patches that I recommend at
http://cirl.meei.harvard.edu/hylafax.patches/.

Dialing 9 first can be handled by modifying your "dialrules" file, 
as in http://cirl.meei.harvard.edu/hylafax/dialrules.ext.

Use tip. Connect to the line. Type "at&fm1l0" to turn on the sound
with the other settings at factory default. "LISTEN" to what happens
when the modem dials.

> What might be the problem?  Am I supposed to issue a delay after dialing 9.

Usually wise. What you want to add is "9,", where comma will tell it to wait
for another dial tone.

You are probably quite right.

The terminal server sits on your local ethernet, or is it a serial
port device mounted on your Sun computers? If it's on ethernet, can you
operate it from the formerly used Sun?

Hello Sandie,

try the ATX3-command, to tell the modem, not to wait for a free line.

Hi,

Well,my friends, I decided to give it a try - 8-D

They always say you need to have a specific project in mind
when you start programming. I guess this will be mine :

		-Html2PHax-

This intends to become a multi-featured webfront to Hylafax
based on Apache and PHP.

Have a look at our homepage at :

http://www.xs4all.be/~mosaic/html2phax/html2phax_index.html

Let's cross fingers and already thanks in advance for all the possible
help.

Rgds.
Didier

Subject: flexfax: "cannot open user access file /etc/hosts"
Sender: owner-flexfax@celestial.com

Im using SUSE Linux 5.1 and the HylaFAX suite coming with it.

I installed the hylafax package, ran faxsetup and faxaddmodem.

Then, if I calles faxstat, the reply was:

Login failed: 550 Cannot set privileges.

The owner of the file /etc/hosts in /var/spool/fax was uucp, so I 
changed it to fax. The mode of the file is 600. Now I get the message

Login failed: 530 User root access denied.

In /var/spool/messages there appear the lines:

Unable to open the user access file /etc/hosts: Permission denied 
HylaFAX LOGIN REFUSED (user denied) FROM localhost [127.0.0.1], root  

If I try to set the mode of /var/spool/fax/etc/hosts to 666, then the 
server refuses, because the mode isnt 600. SO I think, the server 
uses the right file.  I didnt change anything in the config-files.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks in advance

I hope this was a recent 4.0pl2 package?

uucp should be the same UID as fax. If it's not, something else is
going on.

600 is correct. Check the contents of the file.

Dear Sir,

We are the City University of Hong Kong and going to setup a tpc.int fax
server by using the hylafax server software(HylaFAX v4.0pl2). Would you be
kind enough to let us know whether it is possible to connect several modems
(max. may be 10) to the fax server.

It certainly should be. You haven't mentioned your hardware or
operating system, and that would help us on the HylaFAX mailing list
tell if we've done the identical thing.

Edmond, please send questions like this to the HylaFAX mailing llist
(flexfax@sgi.com). I can only speak for the PPI FXMT and Zyxel 1496
and Zoom 14.4 and USR 33.6 Sportster internal and Performa 33.6
external I have gotten working. Most modern modems work fine with
some technical time spent working out the details: good modems
with *MANUALS* and a technical support department that answers their
phone can be cajoled into supporting the full range of HylaFAX
services.

I recommend Zyxel, because their tech support has been wonderful with
the HylaFAX and Linux community. Zoom modems should only be used as
door stops....

I personally run a fax/modem pool of 4 modems and have installed
several dozen different versions of HylaFAX and modems and operating
systems altogether, some as a consultant. It's quite flexible and this
mailing list is very good with solving subtle problems.

Hello !

We are running Hylafax v4.0pl2 with the following Hardware:

- 200MHz Pentium, 12GB Harddisk, 128MB Ram
- Digiboad Card providing 8 Serials
- SIO Card providing 16 Serial
- currently 16 Modems (3 Types: 2 Zyxel 1496, 3 Elsa 33.6TQV, rest USR
Robotics 28.8)

All is working fine. I dont recommend Robotics, especially the
33.6-Version. Elsa
is a german manufacturer.

Best Regards,

Sure ! In fact we are connecting 30 modems to the fax server.

Hi all,
Two points:

1) Can we get somewhere a statement about HylaFax being compliant Y2K?

2) I can't find the source RPM from Darren for Linux Red Hat 5.1 mentionned by Nico Kadel-Garcia in an answer posted the 27th September 1998. Is the URL ftp://ftp.tpc.int/pub/hylafax still valid?

Gack. Darren moved it: I've stashed copies at
http://cirl.meei.harvard.edu/hylafax/linux/. I believe there is also a
copy at ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/distributions/redhat/contrib.

Darren? Is there a new public location for this stuff?

Nope, it's broken, for reasons which will soon become clear ;-)

In the meantime, please use the normal redhat contrib/ sites, such as contrib.redhat.com and its mirrors, the RPM and SRPM were uploaded ages ago and have mirrored by now.

Hi all those fax gurus!
I have a big problem!
When i want to send a fax with sendfax then the error below is produced.
It seems that there is no dialtone.
But when i connect with minicom i have a dialtone and i also can
connect to a fax machine.
Also when i call from a telephone to the modem then the modem is answering
and all is ok.
It seems to me that there is something wrong with one ot the several String
Commands for the modem, but i am not a very sophisticated user in modem issues.
Note : If i connect with minicom and i type ATDT1234 for example i get no 
dialtone. BUT IF I feed this ATX1DT1234 to the modem tha I HAVE A
DIALTONE! and all works.
ANY IDEA about this sophisticated problem would be very nice.
I need this information urgent because i want to show all those M$
People here that Linux with all its features is very nice ( also thanks to SAMBA
SENDMAIL and other good things )

Any idea about a M$Word97,M$Excel to postscript converter for LINUX?
Is there any GUI Interface to Setup Modem and Hylafax issues?

Thanx Thomas Schachner

Hi Thomas,

Your problem is in the dialrules. Where are you in the world? You
probably should be using dialrules.europe.

I think you are also getting confused between "no dialtone" and "no
carrier". "no dialtone" means that modem picked up the line and couldn't
hear anything coming from the exchange - it means the phone line
probably isn't plugged in. "no carrier", means that the modem dialled,
but didn't get a response (or one that it could understand) from the far
end.

I have annotated the log below:-

This doesn't seem right. Is the telephone number really '31'? This is

Hi,

The first very,very basic pre-alpha-prerelease version 0.0.1
is available on our site.

Please go and crash/trash it ... ;-)
(But let me know if it does)

It was inspired by the html2fax perl script that already is around some
time and written by Rick Morris. Of course the misspelling was done to
make a link to PHP ...

Anyone else having remarks about the name ?
(I never thought about this aspect ;-) )

I'd suggest changing the name.  This form of name is normally used for
conversion programs (e.g. concatentating html2ps with ghostscript with
a fax driver, or even directly with sendfax).  I think you are actually
talking about a fax job management interface.

Also, the strange capitalisation and mis-spelling (of fax) is normally
associated with the illegal distribution of copyright software.

Hello all of you,

Just a little note to tell you that the html2phax site has been
updated and that now there is a html2phaxviewer (for sent fax')

Subject: flexfax: Re: Can't sendfax from Hylafax
Sender: owner-flexfax@celestial.com

Dear all,

Thank you very much for your response to my problem.  Here's my original
problem:

Problem Desription
******************
I'm running HylafaxV4.0pl1 with US Robotics 56K fax modem connected to a
DGII PortServer 8 terminal
server.  Everythin worked fine through the terminal server with the 56 K
fax modem when it was
installed it on a Sparc 5 machine running Solaris 2.6.  Yesterday, after
all the testing,
I moved the fax modem and the terminal server and connected them to a
production unit Netra
unning Solaris 2.6.  Fax can be received, however I CAN'T send anything
out.  It keeps complaining that
line is busy.  The only difference I can tell is that the phone system
where the production unit locates is
on PABX whereas the test I've done in the lab has all the normal phone
lines i.e. in the production building,
I need to dial 9 in order to gain access to phone lines whereas I don't
need to do the same thing in the test lab.

The next thing I tried is to hylafax totally out of the picture first in
order to isolate the problem.  I stopped the hylafax
processes and perform "tip /dev/term/a003" into the modem (that's the new
device ID after terminal server is
installed).  When I issued the modem command : ATDT15552262299.  The modem
also returned me that the
line is BUSY, which it shouldn't be.

What might be the problem?  Am I supposed to issue a delay after dialing 9.
I know it's not even the problem
with hylafax since hylafax was not enabled and still I got the same error.
I guess it's more modem related.
Please excuse me 'cause I don't know a lot about modem commands.  What
should I try?

I believe in this case, the terminal server shouldn't cause any problem
since it used to be working with the same
settings.  The only difference here, as far as I can tell, is the
difference in phone system.

*** End of problem description ***

I tried a couple things as suggested from subscribers on this list
but the problem still persists.  Here's what I tried:

1. I tried issuing ATX3 before dialling the number, not working.
2. I tried to reset to factory default and turn on volume on the modem
using at&fm1l0.  The user on the remote side
said that he can here dialling from the modem and once again,
the modem still complains that line is busy.
3. I asked the user on the remote side to connect a normal
phone to the jack where my fax modem is connecting now.  He
said that there is no dial tone unless he pressed 9.  Will that cause the
problem?
4. I tried to tip into the device and issue command: atdt9,15552255
from there, either I get "Busy" or "No carrier" depending on
the value of Xn set.  It will return busy if modem is set to
X4 or "No carrier" if set to X0.

I really scratch all the hair out of my head and don't have
a clue what's going on.  The situation is "Receiving" works
fine but I just can't do any sending.

Someone suggests that the PABX lines might be digital and I need analog
lines
in order for faxing to work.  However, I have a query here.
If the lines are really digital, can receiving still works
while
sending won't?  As far as I can tell, if fax modem doesn't
like digital lines, then neither sending nor receiving should
work.

Please, please any insight on the problem will be more than welcome.
I surely greatly appreciate your kind attention and patience.

This is *ODD*.  "Hear dialing" is not enough information. He should
hear dial-tone, then a number "9" dialed, then dial tone again,
then the next eight digits.

Is it possible that your PBX doesn't like 1+7-digits, and wants the
area code dialed as well or no "1" prefix?

Use "tip" or "kermit" to test this out. If those don't work,
then nothing will work under HylaFAX.

The Hylafax configuration files have the ability to build Hylafax using
shared libraries, but only on Irix systems.  On the other hand, the 
TIFF tools, from the same source, have shared library support for multiple
platforms (although that for linux is trivially broken as the result of
a missing * at the end of "linux" in a case statement in the configure
script).

I'm wondering about trying to merge the shared library building support
from TIFF to Hylafax, but first I'd be interested in whether it is
worthwhile.  Shared libraries can reduce the disk footprint, and may
reduce the memory footprint, but only if multiple, different, programs
are running at the same time.  On the other hand, they increase the
memory footprint of a single program (one or more instances) and increase
the load time.

I'm interested in Hylafax for very occassional use, but it would be 
interesting to have views for both heavy and occasional use.

Hello,

in the Hylafax FAQ Q35, I found a part over a cgi-script, that query the

But I didn't found the script. Where can I get such a script?

Subject: flexfax: Cheap 33.6 modems and data dialups, FIXED!
Sender: owner-flexfax@celestial.com

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----


Found it! The stupid thing would not handle data calls, and I was
forced to use the 14.4 modems for data until I figured it out.

The modem is a Performa 33.6. The difficulty was that in Class 1,
which was the only fax mode it supports, the "auto-adaptive" mode
did not work. So I had to teach it to remain in Class 0 (data) mode
when idling by adding this to the config file.

  #
  # The remainder of this configuration is included so that the
  # modem "idles" in Class 0 while not sending or receiving facsimile.
  #
  ModemSetupAACmd:	AT+FCLASS=0	# leave modem in class 0

I also had to change the AnswerRotary value to keep that line in
data mode as a default instead of fax mode, for faster answering.

  AnswerRotary:		"data fax"	# rotates between 
  AnswerBias:		1

I'm happy! I can now get the cheap dial-up to work, which is much faster
than my local ISP and keeps passwords off Internet.

Now, should this ModemSetupAACmd be set up in the "skel" or "class1"
files in order to be that default for everyone? I'm certain that
the el-cheapo 33.6 modem is not the only one with this problem as
the configuration stands.

For reasons implied but not explained in the "hosts" man page, you need
to change this to:

> ^philipp@diavolos\.oberberg-online\.de$:6000::

The UID may also be causing you trouble. You might try deleting that,
as a test of whether the UID 6000 has permissions to write files in the
fax spool.

It's also easier to test first with "faxstat" than to actually try
sending faxes.

Last, I *believe* that the hostid derived by hfaxd for authentication
is then used via a "gethostbyaddr" and the host name is derived from
that. This will be the *FIRST* hostname returned out of a set of
aliases: if the host has multiple aliases (such as
www.diavolos.oderberg-online.de) which get listed first, trying to
authenticate based on hostname will be a bit of an adventure.

> Shouldn this entry allow access to user philipp from box

With a minor tweak or two, it *should* work.

What in the *HECK*? How did you generate this error, and where did this
"/etc/hylafax/hosts" filename come from? The hosts file for HylaFAX
should be in $SPOOLDIR/etc/hosts, or if you have installed my hosts.fax
patch, in $SPOOLDIR/etc/hosts.fax.

It should be user uucp, group uucp, permissions 0600. This prevents
non-users from reading the encrypted passwords or permissions of the
file.

You've got either a broken Postscript interpreter or invalid Postscript.

Assuming that you are using ghostscript, try running it in X mode, or
to a printer, on the postscript file.

it does not put the number of pages on the cover page, but it does on

Subject: flexfax: Configuration issues for Class 1 modems, and the new security patches
Sender: owner-flexfax@celestial.com

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----


After having worked out the necessary tweaks to get a cheap Performa
33.6 modem to handle data calls, I'd like to embed those tweaks in an
appropriate configuration file. Unfortunately, the parsing of the
files by faxaddmodem is a bit confusing and obscure to me.  Probemodem
reports the following.

ATI0	RESULT = "OK"	RESPONSE = "33600"
ATI3	RESULT = "OK"	RESPONSE = "V2.061.2-V34_ACF_DS1"

What is the correct "CONFIG" or other lines to get a Class 1 modem
selected in $SPOOLDIR/config file, rather than the generic class 1
file?

Also: the new security patches for faxsetup, recvstats, probemodem,
etc. use the "noclobber" shell option. This option is unfortunately a
*BASH* option, and is not available under the older SunOS shell. I'm
not quite sure what to do about that....

It is also in SCO's Bourne shell, so it may well be Posix.  I doubt that
it is race condition free and I find it irritating when set by default

noclober seems to be in ksh.
All my SCO Unix and UnixWare platforms seem to run them under
ksh (#! /bin/ksh).
Do the older SunOS's not have ksh?

SunOS does not come with ksh. I'd *REALLY* rather not have to
add a new shell to my machines to make HylaFAX work: can we set up
the equivalent of the "noclobber" functionality by other means?

Solaris is its own story....

I suspect that if you want the "noclobber" functionality on SunOS
you are going to have to use a different shell.

The real question is how do we get the security patches in the next
patch level without breaking things.

One option would be to leave out the set -o noclobber and set +o noclobber
lines.

Another option would to have configure add them in if supported.
So faxsetup.sh.in would look something like
....
        while true; do
            if [ "$ok" != skip ]; then
                test -f $PROMPTS || (
               @MINUS_NOCLOBBER@
                > $PROMPTS || exit 1
               @PLUS_NOCLOBBER@
                compilePrompts>$PROMPTS<<EOF
....

and then at a minuium have two new entries in config.site.
#MINUS_NOCLOBBER=set -o noclobber
#PLUS_NOCLOBBER=set +o noclobber

Anyone want to write a script to test noclobber at configure time.
Be sure to use whatever shell is selected buy configure. $SCRIPT_SH

Hmmm, let's fire up the old 3/60.....

% man csh
[.....]
                    When set,  the  variable  noclobber  prevents
                    destruction   of  existing  files.   It  also
                    prevents   redirection   to   terminals   and
                    /dev/null, unless one of the ! forms is used.
                    The & forms redirect both standard output and
                    the standard error (diagnostic output) to the
                    file.
[.....]
Sun Release 4.1    Last change: 2 October 1989                  7


This actual release of SunOS is 4.1.1_U1, but I think that noclobber in csh may
be as old as 3.5 -- sorry I've given away the 3.5 manuals now :-(

csh != sh != tcsh != ksh != bash. This is a common error for people
writing shell scripts.

The default script for HylaFAX under SunOS is /bin/sh: I can try some
tests and see if csh works in a few days.

Sure csh has noclobber, but all the scripts in question are allready
written for bourne/korn shells. I don't think anyone wants to maintain
duplicate scripts.

First, go to version 4.0pl2 and install the security patches. There
are some at http://cirl.meei.harvard.edu/hylafax/patches, and they are
already in the RPM available at
ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/distributions/Linux/redhat/contrib/manhattan/
if you are using Linux.

Subject: flexfax: replacing an exchange fax server
Sender: owner-flexfax@celestial.com

[ Warning: could be considered not strictly
  hylafax related ]

Hi,

I'm helping someone to replace an NT box with
a RedHat system, and we're satisfied that we can
get Linux to do everything that his current dying
Small Business Server can, with the exception of
fax services.

His users work almost entirely from Outlook 98,
and send faxes by mailing word documents as
attachments to email addresses which look like
'[fax:NUMBER]'

It seems that Outlook then sends the document
through to Exchange with hands it to the fax service
for rendering and faxing.

I was wondering if anyone had done something like
this before; I suspect that it could be done quite
simply with some VBA at the client side, but he
doesn't want to have to alter the clients and
especially his users way of working.

Ideally, there would be a Linux word->tiff renderer
available, but I suspect that to be a pipe-dream.

Has anyone done anything similar, or found written
a Hylafax exchange-a-like plugin for Outlook?

Cheers,
Matthew.

Hi,

I've had a look through the FAQ and while I found several answers about
this sort of problem I didn't see anything about the specific error I'm
getting so I was wondering if anyone here could help.

I'm running hylafax v4.0pl2 on a SCO OSR5 box and i'm getting the
following log file.

I've set this up on a consulting basis for several sites. Let me know

***GACK***. Exchange is one of the most unreliable products
known to modern computing, beaten for poor service only by
its predecessor MSMail and a misbegotten product called
"First Class" written for the Macintosh.

It can be done with built-in tools for HylaFAX and
a modern Linux system. Incoming mail goes to "fax@linux-server",
and includes an extra header for "Fax Recipient:"

Definitely. There are some tools for Word document translation, but
what you really want to work with is Postscript output.  Instead of
sending the documents as Word documents, the easiest solution is to
print them to the Fax server. The Star Office suite
(www.stardivision.com) may be able to translate Word documents
directly to Postscript: you might write to them and ask.

The same functionality may be available via "WHFC", which uses
*printing* to send a job to the fax server instead of email. This
raises security issues of protecting your fax server, but no greater
than those of letting email be sent through your fax server.

And one of the reasons that the bloke wants a Linux server :)

Yep, that's what I suggested.

That's a good idea - thanks.

I've been trying to convince him that this is the answer, but he's
(unreasonably, IMHO) convinced that this will require significant
changes in his Outlook/Access application.  (In a past life, I did
a disturbing amount of VB/VBA, and I'm not convinced of the truth of
this one.)

Thanks - I can now safely claim that the hf experts say I'm right
and that he should let me to a half-hour client hack instead of a
six-month-plus Word document renderer... :)

Hi,

whfc has an ole interface. So you can write some
macros or VBA scripts which does the job. For
infos on ole and some examples see

Hello,

How in the hell do you  restart faxgetty.  I tried simply
/usr/local/sbin/faxgetty ttyS0 & and call it to check it and I get no
response.  At the moment I do not wish to put it in the inittab.

Thanks,

Depending on your operating system, you put it in faxgetty to do so
automatically. Or you can get the phone answered by hand by saying
"faxanswer".

Hi.

I like the idea, but the name is confusing. The name needs to say as 
much about the software in as few easily understood letters as 
possible. (IMO) Html2Phax fails. 

How about php:fax  ?
(the : could be interchanged with any of the other legal connectives)

It was inspired by the html2fax perl script that already is around some
time and written by Rick Morris. Of course the misspelling was done to
make a link to PHP ...

Anyone else having remarks about the name ?
(I never thought about this aspect ;-) )

Is there any kind of script that is run after a send is completed, or
perhaps even just when there was an error?

I'd like to set up a script where after a fax is sent, it calls my script to
check and make sure it wasn't a zero page fax (the problem I'm still
having), and if it is, restart faxq and resend the document.

Thanks in advance for any and all help.

Hi

My wife wishes I could spend 10% of the time I spend on Hylafax with her.
I have a server in both hemispheres and the remote one runs a funny modem which reports:
 DAVICOM V.34+/FAX/VOICE/SPEAKERPHONE MODEM    Ver:1.09I 

I could write endlessly on what it is donig and not doing right but was wondering if for a small 
fee there is someone who is willing to log in and help me and give me back some
of the many hours I am losing.
One of the fixes has been to reverse the USBLSB bit order, but this fixes
receive and breaks send.  The other fix has been to set rtccts as flow control.
The machine is in London and runs hylafax-4.0pl2-3rh5 on Red Hat 2.0.31.

Despite this, I think Hylafax is great :)

I've done this in the past, under several versions of Linux (including
my home setup!)

How can we coordinate a time to log in and potentially to grant root
access for reconfigurations? I'd like to recommend the use of ssh,
available from ftp://replay.com/pub/crypto/redhat/i386/ for RedHat
Linux versions.  Also, I'd like to very strongly recommend the upgrade
to 5.2: there are a lot of little security patches in that which may
help other issues.

The mailing actually supports HylaFAX, and not Hydrafax.

If you are using HylaFAX, the package contains a handbook in setting
up inbound/outbound faxes.

I've noticed that the SysV init script, "hylafax", has a bunch of

This may be particularly useful to Linux users working from source,
although I have not yet worked out how to configure all the various

A good start, but a couple of problems.
Your patch appears to substitute /etc/init.d, /etc/rc0.d, & /etc/rc2.d
with the Linux /etc/rc.d/init.d, /etc/rc.d/rc0.d, & /etc/rc.d/rc2.d 

Somewhere configure needs to test for ethier /etc/init.d or /etc/rc.d/init.d
How about testing and assigning it to DIR_SYSVINIT_BASE with the default
being DIR_SYSVINIT_BASE=/etc (don't want to break existing systems)

Then you would have something like (lines folded for readability)
  if [ "$SYSVINIT" = auto ]; then
    if test -d $SYSVINIT_BASE_DIR/init.d -a -d $SYSVINIT_BASE_DIR/rc0.d -a -d
$SYSVINIT_BASE_DIR/rc0.d; then
        SYSVINIT=yes
        Note "Looks like a SysV-style init is used, enabling installation of
startup code."

That should work for existing SysV machines and for Linux.
 
While we are addressing the SysV init scripts, I've allways had a problem
	/etc/init.d/hylafax
	/etc/rc0.d/K80fax 
	/etc/rc2.d/S80fax
I would much prefer
	/etc/init.d/hylafax
	/etc/rc0.d/K80hylafax 
	/etc/rc2.d/S80hylafax
Anyone have objections to this one?

Yeah, it did. I take it this is not correct for some operating systems?

Fair enough: I'll try to do this.

Which would be great, if that's all I was aiming for: unfortunately,
I'd also like to use this technique to have a start-up script for
other operating systems, such as SunOS. Rather than getting extremely
clever about figuring out if there is an $SYSVINIT_BASE_DIR with an
init.d, I'd prefer to use the init.d in a $SYSVINITDIR and have the
other links added only if ../rc0.d and ../rc2.d exist.

Moreover, the use of the init locations is somewhat problematic: while
rc0.d and rc2.d are apparently correct for Solaris, for Linux you want
to use rc0.d, rc1.d and rc6.d for K80hylafax, and rc2.d, rc3.d,
rc4.d, and rc5.d for S80hylafax.

I prefer the K05 and S97 that Darren uses: HylaFAX should be one of

Hi Nico,

The patch you posted has an implicit dependence on a patch i wrote for
inclusion with the RedHat binary distribution. ie it is a patch on a patch
on top of 4.0pl2

Attached is the original patch and a brief description below on how it works.

It is currently only suitable for RedHat systems.  At this stage unless you
are really confident do not include on other systems.

Rather than a new parameter SYSVINIT_DIR or whatever, i was going to
replace SYSVINIT to represent the location of the file or "" if the system
used a BSD startup.  There would also be an additional prompt during
configure prompting the correct location for the sysv init script.  The
sysv init script would then be installed at the make install stage with all
the other applications, unless obviously it was a BSD machine.

I was still going to make the user manually install the symlinks from the
run-level directorys, as it is very system dependent.

I have *not* done this yet.  That is why until now i had not generally
released this.

Hi Darren,

Attached is the diff file it affects /etc/rc.d/init.d/hylafax and
/usr/sbin/faxsetup.

Either apply directly to those files or perhaps manually in the source tree.

Three new params in setup.cache are created by faxsetup:
	SYSVINIT - the location of the sysV init file
	FAXQ_SERVER - Whether to start faxq on startup(1 for on 0 for off)
	HFAXD_SERVER - Whether to start hfaxd as a daemon(1 = yes, 0 from inetd)

Faxsetup when first run automatically sets both the above to start as
daemons, and starts them.

PS If the diff doesn't make it through to you i will post it on my web page.

How about testing /etc/init.d vs /etc/rc.d/init.d only if
SYSVINIT=auto

For your SunOS you could set SYSVINIT=yes and
SYSVINIT_BASE_DIR=/whatever_you_want in config.site or at configure time
with the --with-SYSVINIT_BASE_DIR=/whatever_you_want and --with-SYSVINIT=yes
options.

Hmm, strange. On a System V machine, even if it boots into run level 3,
all the scripts in rc2.d get run first. So having them in rc2.d and rc3.d
would have them run twice.

I guess I'll fire up may Caldera machine tonight and look at this.

Not only that, but HP-UX runs the S* scripts for each level in order
[1..n] when bringing the system up, and runs the K* scripts for each level
in reverse order [n-1..0] to shut down.  Which forces each level to be a
superset of the previous one.  (I don't think any other unixes do this.) 
The proper places are probably /sbin/rc4.d/S905hylafax and
/sbin/rc3.d/K095hylafax.  That's not a typo; they go in different
directories.

Furthermore, HP-UX invokes the script as "S905hylafax start_msg" and
"K095hylafax stop_msg" expecting it to output strings which should be
displayed on its startup and shutdown screens.  For example:

case $1 in
start_msg)
        echo "Start hylafax server"
        ;;
stop_msg)
        echo "Stop hylafax server"
        ;;
start)
	# start the daemons...
	;;
stop)
	# stop the daemons...
	;;
*)
        echo "usage: $0 {start|stop}"
        ;;
esac

So I'll forgive you if you don't try to support HP's weird way of doing

And this is a potential problem: it's difficult to sort out the
patches into "RedHat", "Caldera", "SunOS", "Solaris", etc.

Yup. I've added this. However, even a BSD machine should have the
option of putting it in the config.local files (which I've done). And
I've used a tweak to set SunOS up with the init script in $DIR_SBIN:
the script is too useful to faxsetup and to administrators modifying
configurations or installations to let its installation be broken by
hunting for the full SysV init tree.

Hmm. I think this is a bad idea: the possibility of errors is too high.
So I've added defaults for SysV, and RedHat Linux, that look right.

Oh. Sorry about this: I had added your patch to my set of default
patches for Linux/SunOS, and included for patch writing without
realizing that it would screw up the new patch.

That is why until yesterday it was 'unannounced' ;-)

The time and work to generalise it across all the unix platforms still
needed to be done.  It is very system dependent...which made me put it off.

ok -how about this: Use SYSVINIT as the location of the file, if its a BSD
system (ie SYSVINIT="") then copy the script to the libexec directory as
hylafax.sysv so that it still can be used on those systems.

Believe me - you cannot do this automatically every system does this
slighty differently

ie for HP-UX it is /sbin/init.d and /sbin/rc*.d and the scripts range in
value from 0 to 1000
ie S905hylafax K095hylafax, HP also put rules about what numbers the
scripts are allowed to be you are *not* allowed to include one as say
S095hylafax for instance as that number range has been reserved by HP.

Also as always it is quite possible the sysadmin has further customised
this, making it all but unrecognizable to an outsider/configure script to
make sense of.

It's ok, i just wish you had glanced at the rpm README file which mentions

This is not so bad: It means that the locations need to be configured
differently for different operating systems. This is what we get for
supporting so many different operating systems!!!

**THIS** is new to me, at least. This takes re-writing of the
"hylafax.in" script source. Is HP married to the "start_msg" rather
than the "start" flag?

Ahh. So can we pitch HP as a server altogether? Or should we try to include

The start_msg and stop_msg flags are used as user-friendly labels
when the system starts up.  It executes all the start_msg commands
produces a list on the screen and then goes through that list one
line at a time and tells you whether it was executed OK, had errors
or was not applicable.

This is wrong.  HPs work fine as servers.  Try setting them up to use
hardware flow control if you're having problems and remember that some of
the HP server class machines need HP serial cables (or custom cables with
HP's non-standard pinouts - look on their support web site for more
info)

I will modify my patch so that it adds these two (start_msg and stop_msg)
to the init script, they will not cause problems for any other platform,
they just won't ever be run except on HP.

I found a document on this stuff: /usr/share/doc/filesys.txt which explains
all this stuff.  It mentions that for public applications a number should
be specifically reserved from HP. I guess i will email them and ask for a
number.
>From the doc i think we should do something like:
ln -s /sbin/init.d/hylafax /sbin/init.d/rc2.d/K150hylafax
ln -s /sbin/init.d/hylafax /sbin/init.d/rc3.d/S850hylafax
or whatever the reserved number turns out to be.

HP's work fine as servers - the cable pinouts are annoying but i think they
have fixed this on more modern machines.

There's another annoying problem with the serial lines that always need
some sort of getty or other process running on them to work properly -
otherwise the kernel sets the line back to 300 baud.  This tends to break
the faxaddmodem script and other scripts unless there is a getty running in
the background at the time the script is run.

- Robert, who knows now for *certain* why he was putting this off...

Probably depends on the operating system.

For recent, production quality, Linux kernels, you shouldn't need to 
use setserial to tweak the upper speed limit as, by using the right
terminal configuration system call you can directly set high speeds.

I don't know whether hylafax uses the right system call, but for pure fax
operation, anything above 19,200 is probably risking unnecesary overruns.

In your spool directory (probably /var/spool/fax/docq/doc30.ps)

As for your other questions (e.g. logging all outgoing faxes), it is all
definately possible and has probably mostly been done. Checkout
faxqclean, the doneq dir etc.

I have SuSE 5.3 with HylaFAX, but need to tweak it. Here is my wish
list. Can anyone out there guide me?
I need to keep a record of every fax I send out via Applixware. If I
print to fax from say Words, then it goes to
/tmp/fax_root.ps. Well, I went there and the only fax there was the last

I sent.
Also, how can you fax a fax that has been received?
Also, from Applixware, how can I combine different pages into one fax
that makes up a number of pages?
Also, can you tell the printer to only print a set range of pages of
areceived fax?
Now if there is a site with documentation let me know, and please check
that it works first. The links on the HylaFax site are
no good.
Also, I have a few faxes that did not go through and they are
docq/doc30.ps. Great! Where the heck do I find these docs? I can't
locate them. Please respond quickly. These are for my business and I
realy need to know which faxes failed.

OK, I re-written the patch. I've used K05 and S97 instead of the
original K80 and S80 used originally, and I've used a SYSVINITDIR set
to auto-search among /etc/init.d and /etc/rc.d/init.d, and
SYSVINITSTART and SYSVINITSTOP to check for the existence of rc?.d
directories as appropriate for the different OS's. The differences
also propagate correctly to the etc/* files, and I've updated the pkg
files appropriately.

This frenzy permits faxsetup to use the "hylafax" init script correctly
for SunOS and other systems without the default init.d directory,
and lets the SYSVINIT stuff be set from config.local as needed.

*PHEW*. What a frenzy of coding!

Hello everybody:

I just installed hylafax on a RedHat 5.1 server and some win95 and Mac
clients, and everything is OK! This is wonderful, but just for sending,
because while receiving the log says something like:

RECV FAX: Permission denied (unacceptable client TSI)
And ends the connection, my question is:

If the man says that it expects to find a file called etc/tsi what does it
has to contain and what permissions?

Thanks a lot!

The file 'etc/tsi' should contain lines of calling fax machines' ID. This
is for controlling HylaFAX will only accept FAX from expected machines. If
you are accepting FAX from any machines, just remove or comment the
'QualifyTSI' line from the config file.

Are you running faxgetty? If not you might like to try it. Without
faxgetty this is the normal message that faxstat returns. You should
still be able to send a fax though...

HYLAFAX(1) man page states that .faxdb

	...is being replaced by other, more straightforward databases
	that are managed by programs that front-end the sendfax
	program.

Do these "other" databases and front-ends exist yet? (I'm running v4.0pl2)
Should I not be building configurations around the .faxdb conventions?

Second question: is there a location for a global .faxdb file? My 
applications really have no need for .faxdb to be user-by-user.

Apologies for the repeat but i forgot to include my config file:

I have a USR 33.6 Faxmodem.  I have had many problems with config and here is a
file that sends faxes ok.  The question is what can I do to get the modem to
autoanswer.  It has worked for me in the past but I cannot seem to get it
working now. faxgetty is running.
The AA light just comes on but does not go off hook.
if I type faxanswer cua0, then it will answer.
Thank you

Eliminate the Obvious Dept: sounds like autoanswer is off?  AA light will 
always blink on a ring, that doesn't mean the modem is set to auto-answer.

Connect to the modem and set:

	ATS0=1&W

From: Michael Henry <michael@maria.its.utas.edu.au>

Hi, I'm running HylaFAX v4.0pl2alpha023 on a Solaris 2.5 box, using a Netcomm modem
(an Australian made class 2 modem).  Imaging is done via GNU Ghostscript 4.03 (1998-5-1),
and version 3.4 of the SGI tiff software. 

I have a problem with faxes sent from this modem being printed out on
the receiving modem with the left edge of the picture being clipped.

This occurs with Postscript imaged via ghostscript to tiffg3.  The intermediate
tiff image (captured before being sent via the modem), contains the left edge, so
something happens to it after this.  I would have thought that the tiff image
would be printed on the receiving machine with its origin at the beginning of
the printable area.

I can hack around this by offsetting the Postscript, but then the same documents
run off the right hand side of a laserwriter.

has anyone seen similar problems and (hopefully :-) found a solution ?

thanks,

michael.

The problem is probably in the tiffg3-to-postscript conversion, which is
done by either tiff2ps or fax2ps (in the faxrcvd script).  These programs
will fit the fax to the page if you specify the page size with the -h and
-w options. 

In addition, I have attached a patch to tiff2ps which makes it behave
better for faxes which are longer or shorter than the page.  Here is what
I said the first time I posted this patch:

Subject: flexfax: My hylafax won't send
Sender: owner-flexfax@celestial.com

Dear all,

I've installed hylafax v4.0pl1 on Sun running Solaris 2.6.  Receiving fax
is no problem but I can't fax out.

The phone system is PABX controlled and I need to dial 9 first before
making any call.  In order to isolate the problem, I totally disabled
hylafax and got into the fax modem and issued modem command from there.  I
tried something like 9,14035552255 but still the message keeps telling me
that line is busy.

Later on, I found out from the customer that there is a 2 digit access code
tied to the fax line that they are using.  How can I accomdate that in my
faxout?  Suppose the access code is 81, I tried something like:
9,14035552255,,,81 but the same "line is busy" is detected.  I know that
there is no problem with the hylafax installation since I don't have any
problem faxing out and receiving fax once the whole thing is connected to a
line not under PABX control.

Could someone please suggest what had happened and how to get around the
problem?  How come the original faxing from fax machine works?  I'm totally
lost and please suggest.  I desperately need to get it working.

Any comment and feedback will be very much welcome.  Thank you all for your
attention!

Sandie

Go straight to v4.0pl2.

You want to modify your "dialrules". There is a modified one
at http://cirl.meei.harvard.edu/hylafax/dialrules.ext.

"Got into the fax modem"? Try using kermit (available from
www.kermit.columbia.edu) and connecting directly to it. Also make sure
the sound is on and *LISTEN* to what happens.

Modify the dialrules to add the fax-code for outgoing calles.

	Sometimes PBX systems don't give a tone that the modem understands.
Try with a laptop or plain machine to dial via a terminal program.  Fax
machines sometimes don't care if its a proper dial tone, just that there
is a constant noise on the line.

	Its a place to start.

The best way is to make the directory that the received faxes live in
available to you via web or NFS or SMB or something, so your mailspool
does not go *KABOOM* when you get a lot of faxes.

The second best way is to email it by editing the  "faxrcvd" script.

You might want to look in the docs for customization of the shell script
called faxrcvd, I think.  This is run after a fax is received -- normally it
is used to do things like print the fax, or mail it to a coordinator.

Sender: owner-flexfax@celestial.com

I accidently made the phonebook part of SuSEFAX a stand alone
application. I want to reverse that. The only way I know how is to
reinstall. Now I have faxes saved in the archive and recvq files that I
do not want to lose. Can I move all /archive and /recvq files to say a
/tmp file then move them back after the reinstall?

Folks,

I'm pleased to say that several "old-timers" within the HylaFAX community have 
banded together to create and maintain a central site for all things 
HylaFAX-ish. Please see:

		http://www.hylafax.org/

Associated with the WWW site is an updated ftp repository (ftp.hylafax.org), 
and coming attractions will include links to contributed software (uploads to 
ftp.hylafax.org are encouraged), current patches, and eventually, searchable 
mailing list archives.

Due to the disk-intensive nature of the ftp repository and any archiving
we might do, we would welcome the donation of an external SCSI disk or
two. Internet connectivity is being provided to hylafax.org by VirtuALL Private
Host Services (http://www.vphos.net), but the hardware is presently off our own
backs. If your company has benefited from HylaFAX in the past and you'd like 
to put something of value back into the community, please get in touch by 
e-mail.

Finally, I'd like to thank Robert Colquhoun for his tireless work in cobbling 
together and adapting most of the preexisting pages to the new site. Several 
people will be contributing to the pages as we grow but the initial design is 
his! ;-)

Constructive comments and suggestions welcomed!

-Darren

Hi,

I have HylaFAX running just fine on an IPX/Solaris 2.5.1, but would like
to extend the facility now by adding more modems.  The IPX has a dumb
terminal console on /dev/cua/a and a single modem on /dev/cua/b.  Can
anyone tell me what are the supported ways of extending this.  I presume
sun serial add on boards have been tried and tested, I probably only need
one more modem (ie 1 inbound and 1 outbound) to satisfy the current demand.
(NB. I have headless IPX's coming out of my ears at the moment, I almost
considered configuring one host for outbound and one for inbound, but it's
just one more host to be looked after/backed up/maintenance contract etc,
so it's probably worth spending money to keep the facility on one host)

Thanks.

Subject: flexfax: faxmail - how do I get images working?
Date: Tue, 24 Nov 1998 14:39:28 +1000
Sender: owner-flexfax@celestial.com

Gudday, people.

We've set up Hylafax v4.0p12 on a Sun box running SunOS 5.6 and have
got it working fine & dandy along with the faxmail gateway for basic text
email, but I'm having trouble getting it to work with images.

I've set up netpbm & the jpeg distribution to convert gifs & jpegs into
postscript, and have made /usr/local/sbin/faxmail/image/jpeg and
.../gif to convert jpeg/gif respectively into postscript, but when I run
faxmail I get something along the lines of:
	Error converting image/jpeg; command was
"/usr/local/sbin/faxmail/image/jpeg
		/tmp//faxmail0HxsKo"; exit status ff00

Trouble is, I'm not even sure what format the temporary file is, so I'm not
sure what I'm doing wrong.  I changed the script so it would copy the
temporary
file into a place so I could look at it but nothing got copied - as if the
problem was that
the temporary file didn't exist.  However, from looking at the code an error
message
about the temp file not being created should have been printed out if this
was the case.

Could anyone tell me if they've overcome similar problems, and what the
format of
this apparently invisible temporary file is?  I'm beginning to think that I
may need to
decode the mime from the temp file (although code in faxmail seems to show
this is
being done already), is this the case?  If so, what package should I use to
do this (&
from where) ?

Thanks in advance.

Could you be a bit more specific please? 4.02 means very little . . . what is 
the exact name of the RPM you installed?

The exact name is : HylaFax-V4_0pl2-19_i386.rpm
I'm using Linux Redhat 5.1 on a PII machine.

You need to use faxaddmodem to choose/create an appropriate config file for 
your modem.

I've run faxsetup and faxaddmodem. I've tried to setup outbound only first with faxmodem, later i've tried using faxgetty.
All of this was done using /dev/cua0. 
Here is a part of my syslog file :

Have you edited this file? Seems very sloppy for an RPM.

I tried using the dailrules and the dailrules.europe that came with the RPM.
They seem to be standard.

You should tell us more about your modem as well - it's highly relevant. If you are as desperate as you say you are, give us something to chew on please, so that we may help you.

Modem is : 3com US Robotics  56K Voice Faxmodem capable of faxclasses 1 and 2.0 connected externally to com1.
Using "efax -d cua0 -o 0" this modem works perfectly to send out faxes. (even documents from /var/spool/fax/docq that were send from a client using WHFC)
      or "efax -d modem -o 0"

 Help would still be appreciated.

It's not hard to split the service on another headless host:
*HOWEVER*, with the standard eeprom settings and Solaris equivalent of
ttytab, when you boot the machine headlessly, it will assume that
there is a terminal on /dev/ttya/a and try to communicate with it at
boot time. I went several rounds with a SunOS system before figuring
this one out....

No idea where this RPM came from. you should rpm -e it and install:

ftp://ftp.hylafax.org/hylafax/binary/linux/rpms/i386/hylafax-4.0pl2-3rh5.i386.r

Stick with faxgetty. But sounds like your modem config file is a bit 
inappropriate to your modem, causing it to become "wedged".

YUCK! Use the "official" RPM and this should go away.

Subject: flexfax: Automatic routing of incoming fax
Sender: owner-flexfax@celestial.com

Hello,

Im interested in finding out if there is a way for automatic routing of
incoming faxes. I know that this IS possible based on the TSI of the
sender. The problem with this solution is, that you can deliver an
incoming fax automatically only iff exactly one recipient gets a fax
from this sender, simply because the routing is done on the senders
adress which is the same for all recipients.

A better solution (if possible) would be to route incoming faxes based
on the number the sender has dialed to reach the recipient. So you could
give each person interested in reveiving faxes a uniqe faxnumber the
sender has to dial in order to reach him. Of course all those numbers
would be mapped to the same physical modems actually receiving the fax.
This can usually be done by the telefone installation by assigning one
physical phone (or modem) several numbers.

Now, if you receive a fax, and if you can get the number the sender has
dialed, you can route this fax without problems since each recipient has
his own number and the routing is not based on the senders adress.

The only problem is: Is it possible to get the number, the sender has
dialed. Is this information perhaps stored somewhere in the faxfile or
is it simply unavailable ?

Thanks

The Wang image viewer, available in more recent versions of Win95 and
available at the Microsoft web site, works fine.

Hi,

Thanks to everyone who help me to find a fax viewer.
We have tested the 3 :
- the wang image viewer from M$ doesn't work, we allways get the message
: "The compression
format in the specified file name is invalid or not supported".

- the tiffview works ok, but allways open a compreesed file, not a full
A4 page.

- the IrfanView is the best, it opens the file like it is, with nice
quality in A4 format, and have a lots of
utilities to work over the tiff file.

The only way to, automatically print a received fax is to a postscript
printer ?
Is there a way to print a received fax, lets say, to a Laserjet ?

Thanks

sure, just the same way you would do it with other documents. ghostscript is

I think that you can print a tiff-image to every printer. it doenst
matter
if its a laser, ink or i-dont-know-printer.

It may be worth checking the MS viewer again... at least it prints to
any Windows printer...

If you have read permission on the tiff files in recvq (644) and SAMBA
has allowed read access to the "share" \\server\recvq, then you put
C:\WINDOWS\WANGIMAGE "//server/recvq/%s" in your system preferences

Send your questions to everybody, you will have a better help.I think that
IrfanView is a Windows program. Im just a 1 day user of IrfanView, but with
the help
of Samba you can view (edit) the received faxes from your Linux box. I was
hable to cut the lines I want, from the received fax (it just puts a black bar
over the selected line) and send back the file to another  fax number.
I'm using Win95 as a client, with whfc 1.0.2, and Suse Linux 5.3 for the
server.

Please see http://www.transcom.de/whfc/doku/inst_view.html for more details

Good luck

Subject: flexfax: HELP!  My hylafax won't send
Sender: owner-flexfax@celestial.com

Dear all,

I sent this message last week and received quite a number of responses.
Thank you all for your help!  Unfortunately, after trying everyone has
suggested, I still can't solve the problem.  My problem is I used to have
hylafax 4.0pl1 running on Solaris 2.6 with US Robotics 56K fax modem
connected to a terminal server.  Everything worked fine until we moved the
whole thing to one of our client's office where they have the phone system
under PABX, even though there is a number dedicated to faxing.  I tried
sending faxes by connecting the modem to a normal phone line and things
worked great.

So, in order to troubleshoot the problem, I disabled hylafax and make the
call right at the modem by "tip" into it and issue ATDT9,9054445555.  I
tried it on long distance but later found out that they have a two digit
access code tied to the line.  When making local calls, the 2 digit code is
not needed.  So, I tried issuing the above command in an attempt to make a
local call.  My colleague at the remote site said that he can hear it
getting the dial tone after dialing 9, and then the number and some humming
noises.  It looks like that it's talking to the remote machine but some
how, it keeps returning that "Busy signal is detected".  The log is as
follows:

I checked with the phone company and they confirmed that the lines are
analog.

I think the problem now is nailed down to the modem.  Anyone has any
suggestion?  I'm totally stressed out to get this going. I'd greatly
appreciate if someone can offer me suggestion.

Thanks a lot for your kind attention!

So just how are you trying to send the faxes? Your log clearly
indicates where the problem is:

ie: you aren't dialing any real number.

Send the list the contents of your config file; more specifically the
entry for ModemDialCmd.

Hi,

Html2PHax  version 0.0.3a has just been released and is available for 
download .  
Html2PHax is a universal webfront to Hylafax for PHP enabled Apache
Webserver. 
Main new feature is the automatic determination by Html2PHax if the
given "FX: " form field is a faxnr. or e-mail adress. (WARNING :error
checking not implemented yet). Html2Phax can double as your (outgoing
mail) client. All email messages are stored as well in central database
together with fax'.

I

have is that I was saving each of my faxes in and out into the archive

either sent out or received. Unfortunately, when I get to the level
where the files that contain the client spoecific faxes I can not
access. Now within the client file there maybe 50 additional

This mailing list received an e-mail from Mr. Ken Robinson

I am trying to setup a hylafax server for FreeBSD 2.2.7.  On a box with X, I

Unfortunately, HylaFAX ( and more specifically GhostScript ) requires certain

I am currently using FreeBSD 2.2.7.  We have HylaFAX installed using X, but
would ultimately like this to work outside X.  Unfortunately HylaFAX ( and more
specifically GhostScript relies on libraries within X.

Error message returned by server for example says:

Your facsimile job to <number> was not sent because document conversion

I guess what we are really after is a ps2fax conversion utility that works
outside of X.


  Any suggestions!!

Why can't you just install X runtime and leave it at that? It doesn't
need to be active at all.

Just install the shared libraries on the machine in question (ie.
install X anyway).  I do this and it works great.  I don't even have a
display on the box and never even set up X.

You must recompile ghostscript without the X driver in it. The list of
"drivers" is in one of the Makefiles. If you can't figure it out let me
know - I already have this working - I can send you my Makefiles.

Another (much simpler) alternative would be to grab libXt.so.*.* off
another FreeBSD box and put it in /usr/X11R6/lib

When I compile with hylafax-v4.0pl2 with 'make' it complains
 that  there is a missing libfaxutil.a that is used by faxalter, faxsend

and faxcover, etc...

I set up the hylafax per instruction in the web page, and successfully
'make' tiff-v3.4.

I use all the default setting by the 'configure' setup script.

Any idea, why I miss the libfaxutil.a library?

Thanks

Are you using gcc 2.8 or egcs? If so, you need the patches at

Hi Phil,

I use gcc to compile, 'file /usr/bin/gcc' indicates that it is version 1
???)
so I wonder whether I need the patch at all.

Which file that I need to apply the patch? I guess, that if I need the
patch
the only file that I need to apply the diff is FileSystem.c++ in the all
directory?

Could you clarify

thanks

I'm running hylafax on Linux, sending works, but faxgetty doesn't answer
the modem.
If I start minicom on my faxmodem and I call the modem I get the RING
message. Typing ATA the modem picks up and I hear the typical sound.

Where can I find out what faxgetty does when it gets a RING?
Where are the configuartion points for reception (I already have
RingsBeforeAnswer = 1)?

You need to change the "ServerTracing" parameter in your config.tty??
Check out the man on "config". faxgetty will then log into the syslog
system (/var/log/messages).

i run a hylafax 4.0p2 and most things work fine. i can send out
facsimiles fine,
but there are problems receiving *some* facsimiles.

When i send myself a fax via my AVM Card everything works fine. My

and the server got the page, but when i try to send a facsimile from a
Faxmachine, i got an error
reported: Not sure if facsimile reached target.

The server is still fine. Hylafax got the page, but it seems that he
doesnt send a conformation

Any ideas, pleease ???

Sounds to me like you need to send a log file to the list. That should

Does anyone have a system working with an US-Robotics 56K Message Modem.

I can send fax but after sending, the modem can not send an other fax and i
have to reinitialise it manualy.

Thank for any help

Hi Seb,

Are you running faxgetty? It sounds like you modem is getting wedged and
needs the help of faxgetty to unstick it.

You should also check out the info on the USR modems:-

That should be obvious by inspection of the samples and machine readable
man pages; they are colons.

This is not what the man page says.  It says: client:uid:passwd:adminwd
and goes on to define the nature of client.  In particular, uid is a
numeric ID, only of significance to Hylafax.

Are you aware that the password fields are the passwords scrambled using
the Unix crypt library routine.  For most *nix systems, this is the same
as the password in /etc/passwd, but some systems append password aging
control data, and some recent Linux distributions allow multiple 
algorithms for the password field.  I believe there are details of how
to cope with the latter within the last month on this list.

Subject: flexfax: RTN problem
Date: Thu, 26 Nov 1998 08:57:30 +0100
Sender: owner-flexfax@celestial.com

Hi,

I am using HylaFAX v4.0pl2 under SuSE Linux 5.3. Modem is a 
Zyxel U1496E+ with firmware 6.19.

When sending to some fax machines, an RTN (retrain negative) error
occurs and the first page will be repeated endlessly. In spite of
this, the received page appears to be complete and of perfect quality.

I found question Q160 in the FAQ list which seems to describe the same
problem. However, I think the explanation given there (bad quality of
phone line) is very unlikely in my case: The problem even occurs when
sending to my own Siemens Telfax 840AB. Both modem and fax machine are
connected locally via a PABX (Ackermann Euracom 180).

I also tried to reduce the bitrate but the problem still occurs at
2400 bit/s.

Here is an example logfile:

Hi Phil,


Thanks a lot for your recommendation to use the straight binary source from

the hylafax.org.  I am currently down load it and try it out.

there are 2 files in the rpms  directory, I guess that i need the file that
has
larger size.

this would solve my problem, I won't bother to find out what went wrong
in the compilation. My compiler  (gcc) has the 2.7.2.3 version, just like
yours.
It should compile, but there must be somethings wrong along the line.

thanks again for your help.

How is life on the other side of the pacific?

There is a patch to cure one version of this, which is due to incorrect
coding of the tag line causing some machines to reject the page.  It
may be on the new www.hylafax.org, otherwise try www.elgro.demon.co.uk
(noting that some patches there have tabs changed to spaces).

It looks like this is not the problem. I have switched the tagline off
completely (by commenting out the TagLineFormat line) and the RTN
error still occurs.

Im using a configuration using one Linux box running Hylafax. We have about 25 clients using WHFC on WIN95 machines.
What I'm trying to do is have one superclient (secratary on WIN95 machine) to OK all the outgoing faxes (and keep a reccord of them). This client would also be responsible for distributing all the incomming faxes to the right user.

Can all this be done using WHFC or should i look at a mail-fax gateway on the Linux box?
Has anybody done so using M$-Outlook 97??

Any advise or help would be most welcome.

Steven Cruysberghs

Hi,

with WHFC you can only send direct to the HylaFAX server.

Interesting idea! But Im afraid, that the dialed-number of a received
fax is *not* transmitted ... so its not available :(

Not at all, until you have special arrangement with telco when you use co
line. But if you use DID line, actually, telco will send you the DID
numbers before the fax. So, if you cpe(PABX) could echo the same to your
fax server, bingo!

Good luck!

With samba I can share a printer with Win95/98/NT with ease, can I do the
same with HylaFax?  Or is a client required to print from WP7, Word95 etc.

The other way to do it is to use Samba on the Linux box, and have users
print to a samba share. The problem then comes: how to get the fax
number to be associated with the job. We ended up have a web interface
for people to collect their jobs and fill in the fax cover info.

Not great, but it does avoid a client program.

I previously posted some messages about my faxes coming out squished on

Thanks to all the guys who answered my queries.
I still have not fixed the problem, I've tried to change my flow control
along with all the other suggestions to no avail. nothing seems to work.

I've been browsing the hylafax FAQ trying to find some sort of answer. I
found something familiar in Q141 of the FAQ, something about using the
Class2DDISCmd configuration parameter to enable workaround support in
the fax server(which said it that problem was fixed from ver3.2 of
flexfax.

My question then is what are valid Class2DDISCmd commands that can be
used.
This is the relevant portion of my config file
Class2DDISCmd:		""		# disable pre-dial DIS command hack

Please someone help. I'm really tired of dual booting to send a fax.

I'm running:
RH5.0 2.0.35
hylafax-4.0pl2-3rh5

Hi all,

    I have a v4.0pl1 HylaFAX(tm)  system (USR Courier external, Linux
2.0.35 i386) which is used to send fax.  It works ok with
fax but I am finding some problems while trying to use it to send
message to pagers.

    Once and a while my messages are not sent and I get e-mail with :

Our paging provider has two local modem numbers.
One or the other is often busy.
It would be useful if hylafax could be told to try
each number in turn.

Once a connect is made to the provider, hylafax will
only send one page per session.  Any queued page jobs for the same
destination will wait for the next retry interval.
Delivery would be much faster if they could all
be sent in the same session.

The log file should tell you what is going on. This is almost certainly
a handshaking (flow control) problem. Check the times that the data is
sent - it should be obvious if the data is being sent too fast (no
handshaking). Send a log to the list if you want.

Once that has ascertained you then need to figure out *exactly* what
commands are being sent to the modem and whether any of them involve
flow control. Do you have a manual for your modem which lists the AT
commands it uses (though they are usually pretty standard)?

I'm sorry if we are already going over stuff again, I must have missed
your earlier post.

This is a great idea and I hope someone is able to extend HylaFAX in
this way.
I our company, we have several faxjobs to the same adress during a day.
The clients send these jobs with the "-a 23:00" option and HylaFAX then
transmits these jobs in the evening. It would be great when once HylaFAX
has established the connection  - it would send all jobs to this adress
in one turn.

Has anyone got an idea?

	I think I have found a bug in the Hylafax system.  I am using the
system for paging purposes and I seem to have a problem with the pagemap
file.  Unfortunately, I did not set the system up so cannot answer many of
the questions you may have regarding the setup process. 
	Hopefully, this is a common problem with a quick fix.
	We have traced it through and it seems the problem is actually
with HylaFax itself.  If a shorter version of the actual name precedes the
intended name (confused yet?), the page will go to the shorter version. 

IE: in the pagemap file

dick@page.ocis.net              314-6946/314-5705

Do you really talk about HylaFAX's pagermap(4F) file (located below
etc/ of the HylaFAX spooling area)? This file maps "patterns" to
provider's number and pin of the mobile. Your patterns look like
e-mail addrs (which is ok but unsual).

Can't imagine. Please show the exact sendpage(1) command and a
trace of the session containing the low-level IXO/TAP protocol.

The "null" password is a bit of a furphy... you need a password
(encrypted) in your root entry and it need to come before the more
global entries.

I suppose you could encrypt a null password, but you may as well put
"root" or "HylaFAX" if it doesn't need security.

My problem is that I don't know how to encrypt a password.  

Everytime I try I'm told to get admin privileges first.  I can't get admin
privileges without a password.  What is the procedure to create an encrypted
password to put in the root entry???

The only entries in hosts now are the default 127.0.0.1 and localhost.

BTW, the SuSE distribution has shadow passwords.  If I look at my system
password file all I see is an 'x'.

Tony Chen (nz) sent me the attached c program to generate "DES"
passwords...

This was the answer to most of my problems with hosts file... the only
other issue learnt by error was to put the most selective entry first...
it is mentioned in the man (5F) hosts

Unfortunately, I haven't got a Linux box anywhere (FreeBSD, SCO,
Digital, Irix; but no Linux). However, compiling the program is
pretty simple. Save the source file (as mkpass.c), and compile with:

	gcc -o mkpass mkpass.c

or possibly

	gcc -o mkpass mkpass.c -lcrypt

(depends on where crypt(3) lives on Linux)

And you can run the program with:

	./mkpass

Cheers.

  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
These are regular expressions, and as they contain no magic characters
the result is a substring match, and as the first match is used, you 
get the observed behaviour.  The correct solution is to anchor the 
expressions (^ and $ meta characters - see normal *nix documentation),
but rearranging them should also work.

I got it to compile once I found out that crypt.h wasn't in the right place and
I put it there.  I used it to a password and finally got past several problems
I was having.

When I packed it in last night Hylafax was refusing to receive faxes due to an
invalid TIS and I couldn't send because of a bad or corrupted data.  I didn't
have time to go back and read the doc's...a tonight job.

If your linux box has perl (and many do) you can (and many do)
generate encrypted passwords like this:

$ perl -le 'print crypt("password","salt")'
sa3tHJ3/KuYvI

If this is not already in the FAQ, it should be.

I'm not sure my other message made it to the list as my first subscription
attempt bombed.

I've set up Hylafax and seem to have everything running with the exception of
needing a password.  When I telnet into hfaxd I can log in but can't get admin
status.  I'm asked for a password.

I've tried everything I can think of to get around this without success. 
I've been trying to add a null password in hosts but that didn't work.  Does
anyone know how to get past this point?

I used the rpm's in SuSE 5.3 to install Hylafax.

Null passwords don't work.  You need the password encoded according to
your operating system's crypt function.  On most *nixes, this is the
password field in the password file, less any password aging codes.
Some Linux distributions use a more generalised mechanism and you'll need
to check the archives for ways of getting the standard crypt password,
or code a small routine yourself.

Hi, I installed HylaFax v4.0pl2-1 on a Slackware 3.5, Linux 2.0.36
x86 system, from the package hylafax-i386-linux-v4.0pl2-1.tar.gz.  I'm
using a USR 28.8 Ext. Sportster Vi.  I unpacked the files, and ran
faxsetup and faxaddmodem with no problems.

The /var/spool/fax directory wasn't readable to faxgetty, although
faxgetty was owned by root.root.  Faxgetty only seems to run if
/var/spool/fax and recvq has 777 permissions.  

These errors turn up in my sysog, I don't know what they mean:

Nov 25 15:43:30 kearneys FaxGetty[4028]: Failed to find free commid
(seqnum=9)
Nov 25 15:47:46 kearneys FaxGetty[4028]: CAUGHT SIGNAL 15

When a data call comes in, getty segfaults.  I tried symlinking getty
to mgetty, but couldn't get mgetty not to reset the modem (thus dropping
the connection).

For now, I'm just running mgetty by itself for data calls.  Thanks for
your help.

Hi, 

I'm using HylaFax 4.0pl2 op Linux Redhat 5.1 box.

I have an internal modem which got detected  as a Rockwell modem during FAXADDMODEM using class 2.
So i'm using the standard config.device file for this modem that came with the installation.

This works perfectly well when sending faxes but when receiving I only get the first 4 cms.
Has anybody been able to solve this??

Not immediately relevant, but you must read the Sportster firmware bugs
pages.

It's not set user, so this is irrelevant.

The fresh Hylafax install is in the office, but the obvious problem would
be not having the right things owned by uucp (NB fax must be an alias for
uucp).

2 minutes grep and less on the source code shows that it had an open
failure for every filename it tried for a session log - probably the
permissions problem.

Basic *nix:  you killed it.

Stack back trace, or at least the output from strace?

Debug on a standard getty.  Continue to use the standard getty unless you
need the auto PPP functions of mgetty; hylafax is taking over most of the
other functions.

Try 

ModemFlowControl:    xonxoff

in your config file (instead of the rtscts default).

Subject: flexfax: TMPDIR set too late in security patch
Reply-to: flexfax@sgi.com, djw@bts.co.uk
Sender: owner-flexfax@celestial.com

In the security patch identified:

# security.patch
# Carsten Hoeger 23 Sep 98

This doesn't work as intended:

-JUNK=/tmp/faxjunk$$            # temp file used multiple times
-AWKTMP=/tmp/faxawk$$           # temp file for awk program
+JUNK=$TMPDIR/faxjunk$$         # temp file used multiple times
+AWKTMP=$TMPDIR/faxawk$$                # temp file for awk program
+
+# security
+TMPDIR=/tmp/.faxcron.sh$$
+rm -rf $TMPDIR
+mkdir $TMPDIR || exit 1

because $TMPDIR is bound at the time that JUNK and AWKTMP are set, 
not when they are referenced.
