Okay, I have some further info and have hacked a solution to make getty to
work with HylaFax. It seems that getty fails in getname and fails on the
read call and exits which hangs up the connection. This change makes getty
work with HylaFax but I do not claim this is a fix, but if you do this
to the getty sources it doesn't seem to break getty and it works so now I
can send/receive faxes, accept incoming dial-ins, outgoing tip and
outgoing iij-ppp sessions with the same modem. You will also want to
set getty args in the config file to "std.38400 -" or you can do a
"std.%s -" but I just run it at 38400 no matter what and let the modem
negotiate the incoming rate. It is also helpfull to make sure your
modem is configured to respect DTR etc. BTW I'm using 2.0.5-RELEASE.

I hope that with this information it will provide some more insight into
why getty is geting triped up on the read in getname and bailing out. Then
maybe we will get a real solution. But atleast now I can dial into my system.
