If you go to:
ftp://ftp.e-smith.org/pub/e-smith/contrib/CharlieBrady/mgetty+sendfax/RPMS you will find this collection of RPMs: e-smith-mgetty-sendfax-0.0.1-07.noarch.rpm ghostscript-6.51-16es2.i386.rpm ghostscript-fonts-5.50-3.noarch.rpm libtiff-3.5.5-10.i386.rpm mgetty-1.1.25-2.i386.rpm mgetty-sendfax-1.1.25-2.i386.rpm modemtest-1.0-1.i386.rpm netpbm-9.9-5.i386.rpm netpbm-progs-9.9-5.i386.rpm supervise-scripts-3.3-1es1.noarch.rpm Installing these RPMs on a 5.1.2 server will give you outgoing fax capability. This bundle should provide a good basis on which developers can build mail2fax and print2fax gateways. Note also that the cut-down ghostscript (no X11 dependencies) included here may also be useful as a PostScript to PDF converter. Configuration instructions are included in the blurb included in the e-smith-mgetty-sendfax RPM: $ rpm -qivp e-smith-mgetty-sendfax-0.0.1-07.noarch.rpm Name : e-smith-mgetty-sendfax Relocations: (not relocateable) Version : 0.0.1 Vendor: (none) Release : 07 Build Date: Thu 07 Mar 2002 12:29:37 PM EST Install date: (not installed) Build Host: lamington.ottawa.e-smith.com Group : Networking/Daemons Source RPM: e-smith-mgetty-sendfax-0.0.1-07.src.rpm Size : 39413 License: GPL Packager : Charlie Brady <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Summary : Package to configure mgetty+sendfax on an SME server Description : Package to configure mgetty+sendfax on an SME server. Configuration properties of the mgetty service are: - status - enabled/disabled - FaxModemDevice - ttyS0, ttyS1, etc. Defaults to "modem". - FaxSendNumber - a telephone number - FaxId (this looks to be a duplicate) - a telephone number (FaxId is now optional, and FaxSendNumber is used instead if FaxId is not available) - AutoPPPLogin - yes/no (but yes is not fully implemented at present) The service is configured in a "down" state. In order to start the faxrunq daemon service, as root, do: svc-start faxrunqd You'll first want to configure the mgetty service: /etc/e-smith/events/actions/conf-mgetty-startup /sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop FaxModemDevice ttyS0 /sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop FaxSendNumber 12345678 /sbine/e-smith/events/actions/conf-mgetty Now you should be able to send a fax using: faxspool nnnnnn file Here "file" is a PostScript, ASCII or G3 encoded file (with filename *.ps, *.txt or *.g3, respectively). When the fax is successfully sent, an e-mail message will be sent to the user who executed "faxspool".
