The problem was that we only have an outbound service. I had to run
'faxmodem ttyS0'.
Once that has been run, the faxes in the queue gets sent.
Problem now is, how do you get the the modem started when the box or
Hylafax start?
When I reboot the box, I have to log in and run the faxmodem command again.
As a workaround, I added the faxmodem command to the hylafax init
script, but what is the correct way of doing it?
