Have you tried this setup yourself?
Cant iaxmodem work by having asterisk bridge the pri channel as needed (did based routing perhaps) and then have hylafax use iaxmodem as the modem it uses. That should result in no additional hardware, which means testing can happen with little cost to see if it works for you. As I understand it iaxmodem just acts like a modem, and doesnt actually do the processing that hylafax does, so the two would work together instead of one or the other. I may be wrong on this, but that is the way it looks to me so far. -- Trixter http://www.0xdecafbad.com Bret McDanel UK +44 870 340 4605 Germany +49 801 777 555 3402 US +1 360 207 0479 or +1 516 687 5200 FreeWorldDialup: 635378
