Already answered by others.
Is it better than WinFaxPro? :-)
It's not a case of better or worse, just different. If all you want to do is have your box sent & receive faxes like a normal fax machine, I very much doubt that Hylafax is what you are looking for. There is nothing like WinFax Pro available for Linux. The closest Linux app I have found is eFax with a gtk front end. I tried it for a while, but it definitely was not in the same league as WinFax, so I gave up and re-installed TalkWorks/WinFax Pro on a W98SE guest under VMware.
Maybe I will live long enough to see a LinFax Pro ;-)

There was a very good fax program (Primafax) that was sold by CDS-Inc but it broke with SUSE 9.0 and they appear to be incapable of fixing it. Not recommended. http://www.cds-inc.com/prod/primafaxlinux.html -- +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ + Bruce S.
