The modem I am using is a GVC external modem connected to the com2 port.  I also have 
a lan
connecting my computer to my brother's.  This lan has been used to pass files, play 
doom,
and to backup my system on to a CD.  My computer has no CD writer.  I have tried 
hylafax, and
mgetty  trying to get the fax to work.  The fax software has been loaded and is
mgetty-1.1.21-4mdk..
