https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=345771 Summary: Discrepancy regarding file FaxDispatch in HylaFAX Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: SuSE Linux 10.0 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: robin.listas@telefonica.net QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- (From a conversation we were having in the opensuse-es@opensuse.org mail list) The man page for hylafax "FAXRCVD(8C)" says: ] This script can route facsimile directly to the intended receipient. ] To do this create a shell script bin/FaxDispatch in the spooling area ] that sets SENDTO to the receiver's electronic mail address. For example, However, in http://www.hylafax.org/man/4.4.0/faxrcvd.1m.html it says: ] This script can route facsimile directly to the intended receipient. ] To do this create a shell script etc/FaxDispatch in the spooling area ] that sets SENDTO to the receiver’s electronic mail address. For example, Notice that the first one says "bin/FaxDispatch" and the second says "etc/FaxDispatch". Which one is correct? Investigating, I find that two scripts contains references to "FaxDispatch". One is "/var/spool/fax/bin/wedged", which imports "etc/FaxDispatch", and the other is ".../faxrcvd", which imports "bin/FaxDispatch". It may be that the man page is correct and the web page is not. Or it might be a confusion somewhere, because both "FaxDispatch" configuration files have similar purposes and the same name, which is quite confusing for the user. And for the user, having to edit a file in "bin/" which might be later overwritten by an upgrade, instead of doing so in "etc/" is also problematic and could be an usability issue. Which is why I classify this bugzilla as "other" initially, for you to decide ;-) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
