Public bug reported:

When invoking /etc/init.d/hylafax start I got:
Not starting hylafax daemons since they are already running

while of course the server wasn't up.

I found this thread:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=864930
and the proposed patch fixed the problem. I'm pasting it here:

edit /etc/default/hylafax

after
---cut---
# try to check for the correct USE_FAXGETTY value
if grep -E '^[^#]*:respawn:/usr/sbin/fax(getty|modem).*$' /etc/inittab 
>/dev/null 2>&1
then
USE_FAXGETTY=init
else
USE_FAXGETTY=yes
fi
---cut---

add the following:
---cut---
# Also check event.d-dir
if grep -E '^exec /usr/sbin/fax(getty|modem)' /etc/event.d/* >/dev/null 2>&1
then
USE_FAXGETTY=init
fi
----cut---
