I examined faxaddmodem a bit and found that the response I got from my modem (0,2) was OK, the script also found it was a class 2 modem, then it continued checking other modem features which all seemed to be OK but still I had these nagging backgrounded message. Might there be still a shell (sh) problem? I havn't yet examined it deeper what exactly happens in this script but I'd be curious if anyone else running current and hylafax is seeing this problem. > > > Now I thought the idea is to add a line > > ttyd1 "/usr/local/sbin/faxgetty" dialup on > > in my /etc/ttys and so I did. > > > > What's weird now is that I can't use /dev/cuaa1 for dialout anymore. > > Kermit: Device busy. cu: /dev/cuaa1: Line in use > > > > Solution ? > > I think hylafax resets the permissions on that device to r/w root only. > > Doug White | University of Oregon > Internet: dwhite@resnet.uoregon.edu | Residence Networking Assistant > http://gladstone.uoregon.edu/~dwhite | Computer Science Major > > --Chris Christoph P.
