You are correct. chan-capi 0.3.5 does not support faxing out of the box. But there's a patch out there that fixes this. It will add CapiAnswerFax(). This function saves a .sff (structured fax file) stream to disk which you can run through sfftobmp and stuff. We create PDF files with some commandline tools and it's rock stable (2 years without a missed/corrupted fax on a system that takes like 10 to 15 faxes a week) Because it's working and we really believe in "if it aint broken dont fix it" we did not look into chan-capi-cm. <offtopic> My personal view on things: avoid PSTN/ISDN connections where possible and go with ITSP services. sangoma, quadbri, capi, tdm,... they all caused headaches where IAX simply works. Off course faxes wont work really good with ITSP but most of them have fax2email and email2fax. This is from a viewpoint of office PBX integration etc, not from ITSP viewpoint </offtopic> -- Michiel van Baak [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://michiel.vanbaak.eu GnuPG key: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x71C946BD "Why is it drug addicts and computer afficionados are both called users?" _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
