X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.04 [en] (X11; I; FreeBSD 3.0-CURRENT i386) MIME-Version: 1.0 To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: mgetty & faxes Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I've been trying to set up mgetty to receive incoming faxes but when I enable incoming fax detection (i.e. fax-only = no and data-only = no in mgetty.conf) the modem doesn't behave properly. It actually receives and sends faxes but when accepting a data connection, mgetty lanches ppp -direct on the serial port which assignes IPs to the local and remote peer, but the I cannot even ping from one peer to the other, as I get: Jul 27 18:48:44 platone ppp[307]: Error: DeflateInput: Seq error: Got 1, expected 0 on the client console and log files whenever I try to send out a packet from the server. It is also horribly slow in sending out faxes (up to 9min far an A4 page). The bad news is that this doesn't happen ALWAYS but more or less 9 times on 10, but if I shut the server down and switch the modem off and the back on it probably works! Configuration: FreeBSD 2.2.7-STABLE, mgetty 1.1.16 compiled here, the modem is a mixed analog/digital modem fax for ISDN and analog calls with a rockwell chipset (option switchbd 19200 in mgetty.conf to accept the incoming faxes). Need tons of logs? Cheers -- Amedeo Beck Peccoz To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
