I'm trying to compile asterisk from source (1.2.18). Faxing is fairly critical for us, so in the past we've used spandsps app_rxfax and app_txfax to support faxing in asterisk. Unfortunately I can't find these applications on soft-switch.org anymore

Forget them! Use Hylafax and iaxmodem instead.

Does anyone know how to best handle faxing in 1.2.18? Is it even necessary to compile these two apps into asterisk? what about spandsp?

Any advice would be appreciated,

I only have a German howto available. But you should get the idea:

Stefan,

My name is spelled Stefan too :)

I AM using hylafax/iaxmodem on my production boxes. I guess I'm not entirely clear on WHAT app_rxfax, app_txfax do.

Are iaxmodem/hylafax essentially a replacement for these asterisk internal applications?

Also,

In the past I've installed Trixbox/FreePbx. It uses NvFaxDetect to detect incoming faxes - is this an application I need to build for asterisk?


Thanks!
