Currently running FreeBSD RELEASE 5.4 and a MultiTech Voice/Data/Fax
modem for dialup internet service on a server-type machine. I also
run another machine with 3 operating systems (FreeBSD 5.4, Suse 9.2,
and Windows XP).
My original objective was to install Hylafax on the server and share
it with the other 3 systems.
I ran into a couple of errors early on and seeked some help from the
mailing list. Got one response suggesting I reinstall the app from
source.
I was preparing to respond to a reply when Thunderbird sent the original
to never-never-land. Sorry. Here's the problem I encountered.
I was running the sendfax command to test my installation and received
an unexpected error message. I used the command taken from the
sendfax man page as follows:
"sendfax -n -d (destination fax#) /etc/passwd
"sendfax: no files to send
"usage:..."
I reran it using the -x <debug> option and the message indicated:
What version of hylafax was installed?
hylafax-4.2.1_3
Make sure you install gawk.
gawk-3.1.1_1 installed
The native awk binary in FBSD is nawk (not gawk) which caused me some
greif with hylafax scripts.
So, update ports. Remove hylafax. Install gawk. Reinstall hylafax.
Hope you noticed the second note sent last night. This one was sent
unfinished. Also note that I have mgetty-1.1.33 installed.
Bob
