All you yave to do is edit /var/spool/fax/etc/config.cuaa1. Find a line that starts with "DeviceMode:" and if one exists, change it's value to 0666, otherwise if a line like that doesn't exist, just add one: DeviceMode: 0666 You'll then have to restart the fax server, and then everything should be hunky-dory.
