This is true, but:

1.) Lee has stated that IAXModem is still "Developer-grade" code.
2.) I don't have a spare PRI for testing, and our phone system is far
too mission critical for me to go mucking about with it and trying
this out (especially given #1, above).
3.) It will not be easy for me to test out this setup without simply
switching our production HylaFAX server to use IAXModem, which I am
again reluctant to do, seeing as it is our production server and we
depend on it. Testing fax service setups is notoriously difficult due
to the huge number of different fax machines, etc that are out there.


redirect one did to iaxmodem for now, test it out, you shouldnt have to
reconfigure everything to get this to work.  iaxmodem connects via iax
so it acts like any other client in that regard, so you should just set
up an acct and redir an unused did to it, assuming you have an unused
did of course.


Would that not solve in the short term all of those issues or am I
missing something?

Well, I can redirect a DID to it, but I have no fax traffic going to that DID, and I am still reluctant to install "developer-grade" code on my production asterisk server.

I'm sure it would be OK, and I bet it would work great, but frankly I would rather wait for the code to develop further and give some others a chance to figure it out at first. I'm not a big fan of running my production servers on the bleeding edge, and I don't have a spare PRI to use for testing on a non-production basis. (got a spare $400 per month or so?)
