Welcome to the README! Thanks for taking the time to find it ;-) |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
First of all, thanks to my employer, iFAX Solutions for allowing me to |
| 5 |
maintain the Red Hat RPMS for HylaFAX on company time! |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
For an introduction to the wonderful world of HylaFAX(tm), please see |
| 8 |
http://www.hylafax.org/. Beginners should head directly to the docs: |

| 11 |
|
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
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 |
|
| 17 |
http://www.ifax.com/ |
| 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 |
|
| 23 |
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 |
|
| 28 |
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 |

| 57 |
Enjoy! |
