Fax not working on asterisk lol :P works great on Digium Hardware,
I use some software called SPANDSP with my asterisk and a digium T1
Card and have no issues.
Likewise if you want to play around with ata's the digium iaxy (iax
based ata) is also cable of faxing through it.
Hope that helps.

Why not HylaFax?
Unless I misunderstand, Hylafax is an entirely separate application
requiring separate hardware. I was hoping, and maybe I'm way off
base, to do it with just Asterisk.
There seems to be lots of work around faxing but I see reports from
one extreme to another. Some have said "Fax is not possible on digium
hardware" but then some people seem to be doing it with a product
called IAXmodem which is a software DSP for IAX. How weird is that.

Subject: [on-asterisk] CPU load due to faxing
Hi everyone,
I have a customer considering using Asterisk to receive a
large number of faxes, with bursts of 12-15 concurrent
receive operations. I've never used it much for faxing. He
has a somewhat modest box so I'm somewhat concerned.
I can only assume that since the fax work is being done by a
software DSP that this creates a fair bit of CPU load. Am I
correct? Is it any more than running an IVR, for instance?
We're using a T1/PRI and with a Digium card so no wacky
attempts at using VOIP, it's pure TDM.
I'd be grateful to hear anyone's experience on load issues or
opinions on rxfax.
Dave
