Helpless :(( Hi, Here comes a good question :) I've been using HylaFax for quite a long time. I've even installed it on a P100 with 1 GB's of HDD and 8 MB's of RAM using SuSE 6.4. Now I've a spare PII 350 to use, which has already got SuSE 6.4 installed, with 64 Megs of RAM. So I took out the modem from the P100 box and put it right to the PII 350 one. The modem is a BOCA 56K ISA International (I'm in Turkey) and can be used flawlessly on my PPP connection using wvdial (we connect and stay online for days). Then took the regular steps for configuration. I have a print out of SuSE How-to from www.hylafax.org which is the correct one. (Btw. to remind SuSE, although I'm a distributor I haven't ordered 7.0 yet so I don't know if it has been corrected but there seems to be problems on the HylaFax section of the manual since 6.1 to 6.4) The configuration script keeps telling me that the fuser command colud not be found ! But it is in place and working quite well ! When I connect to my ISP and issue a fuser /dev/ttyS1 command it tells me that the ttyS1 is used by wvdial correctly. I missed this warning and got on configuration. It dilas out and sends faxes smoothly (excpet for some minor problems regarding buggy fax machines) but when it comes to receiving them the modem just stays online after receiving. I also tried an external-TI chipset-USR clone-V.34+ (33.600) modem which has been used correctly by my co-workers on a Windoze box with Symantec TalkWorks. It also screws up ! I don't want to go back to Symantec because it's too buggy and weak for broadcasting and mass-faxing. Has anybody cam-up with the same problem ? Koray

That is interesting, communicating in english while we both speak the same Turkish the native tongue Could it be on the previous system fuser was SUID root and the new one does not have it like that or are you a member of the uucp group (so fax can communciate) -- Togan Muftuoglu toganm@turk.net 100% MS FREE Absolutely no component of Microsoft was used in the generation or posting of this e-mail.
