Welcome to the README! Thanks for taking the time to find it ;-) |

|
|
First of all, thanks to my employer, iFAX Solutions for allowing me to |
5 |
|
|
maintain the Red Hat RPMS for HylaFAX on company time! |

|
For an introduction to the wonderful world of HylaFAX(tm), please see |
8 |
|
|
http://www.hylafax.org/. Beginners should head directly to the docs: |

If your company plans to deploy HylaFAX for something important, you |
14 |
|
|
should consider purchasing an annual support contract from hylafax.org's |
15 |
|
|
commercial sponsor (and my employer). For more details, see: |
16 |
|
|
|

|

18 |
|
|
|
19 |
|
|
or send an email to the iFAX Sales Team <sales@ifax.com>. By doing so, |
20 |
|
|
you'll make sure you have knowledgable technicians to turn to in a |
21 |
|
|
crisis, and be supporting HylaFAX development at the same time. |
22 |
|
|
|

|
|
If you have a question which you think relates only to the RPM version |
24 |
|
|
of HylaFAX, please mail me directly, or post a bug on the HylaFAX bugzilla: |
25 |
|
|
|
26 |
|
|
http://bugs.hylafax.org/ |
27 |
|
|
|

|
|
If your question is a general one, please instead direct your query to |
29 |
|
|
the HylaFAX mailing list. For more info on the |
30 |
|
|
hylafax-users@hylafax.org mailing list see: |

One minor caution - HylaFAX creates several files during normal operation |
35 |
|
|
which are not "owned" by the RPM. As such, if you were to uninstall it, |
36 |
|
|
these files would have to be removed manually. They are: |
37 |
|
|
|
38 |
|
|
/var/spool/hylafax/etc/config (faxsetup) |
39 |
|
|
/var/spool/hylafax/etc/setup.cache (faxsetup) |
40 |
|
|
/var/spool/hylafax/etc/setup.modem (faxsetup) |
41 |
|
|
/var/spool/hylafax/etc/config.<device_name> (faxaddmodem) |
42 |
|
|
/var/spool/hylafax/FIFO.<device_name> (faxaddmodem) |
43 |
|
|
/var/spool/hylafax/dev/{null,socksys,tcp} (hfaxd) |
44 |
|
|
files in various subdirs of /var/spool/hylafax (normal usage: sent faxes, |
45 |
|
|
logs,..) |
46 |
|
|
|
47 |
|
|
You should also be aware of the following system modifications: |
48 |
|
|
faxsetup adds the 'FaxMaster' alias in /etc/aliases. |
49 |
|
|
These 2 modifications are NOT undone when the RPM is uninstalled. |
50 |
|
|
|
51 |
|
|
If you think you have found a bug in the HylaFAX RPM, please report it at: |
52 |

|
53 |
|
|
http://bugs.hylafax.org/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi |
54 |
|
|
|
55 |
|
|
Choose the product HylaFAX Binary Packages, and then the RedHat Linux RPM. |
56 |
|
|
|

|
|
Enjoy! |
