Topic: SME 7 + hylafax

1. Qulaity not good enough -> rejected
Oct 04 22:59:48.84: [ 3306]: RECV: begin page
Oct 04 23:00:54.08: [ 3306]: RECV: 291 total lines, 41 bad lines, 61 consecutive bad lines
Oct 04 23:00:54.08: [ 3306]: RECV: REJECT page quality, 85% good lines (95% required)

The line that I highlighted with underline is what I am annoying with. It rejected the page as quality is not good enough, 95% required.

2.
My hylafax on SME 7 has been set up but I cannot retrieve the fax image.
My faxmaster account can receive the email from hylafax. It wrote:
recvq/fax000000004.tif (ftp://server1:4559/recvq/fax000000004.tif)

But I clicked on the link above. It needs a password to open but I dont know what I should put in.

Anyone can give a helping hands. Thanks a lot

George,

1. When you ran faxaddmodem it would have asked you what percent good lines you would like to accept and you must have accepted the deafult of 95% - see the last line below:

Code: [Select]

[root@server ~]# faxaddmodem
Serial port that modem is connected to []? ttyS2

Ok, time to setup a configuration file for the modem.  The manual
page config(5F) may be useful during this process.  Also be aware
that at any time you can safely interrupt this procedure.

Reading scheduler config file /var/spool/hylafax/etc/config.

No existing configuration, let's do this from scratch.

Country code [1]? 61
Area code [415]? 2
Phone number of fax modem [+1.999.555.1212]?
Local identification string (for TSI/CIG) ["NothingSetup"]?
Long distance dialing prefix [1]?
International dialing prefix [011]?
Dial string rules file (relative to /var/spool/hylafax) [etc/dialrules]?
Tracing during normal server operation [1]?
Tracing during send and receive sessions [11]?
Protection mode for received facsimile [0600]?
Protection mode for session logs [0600]?
Protection mode for ttyS2 [0600]?
Rings to wait before answering [1]?
Modem speaker volume [off]?
Command line arguments to getty program ["-h %l dx_%s"]?
Pathname of TSI access control list file (relative to /var/spool/hylafax) [""]?
Pathname of Caller-ID access control list file (relative to /var/spool/hylafax) [""]?
Tag line font file (relative to /var/spool/hylafax) [etc/lutRS18.pcf]?
Tag line format string ["From %%l|%c|Page %%P of %%T"]?
Time before purging a stale UUCP lock file (secs) [30]?
Hold UUCP lockfile during inbound data calls [Yes]?
Hold UUCP lockfile during inbound voice calls [Yes]?
Percent good lines to accept during copy quality checking [95]?
But I think changing this will only mask your problem. You may need to change the flow control (if it's using xonxoff try changing to rtscts) or try changing the Modem Class from Class 2 to Class 1. I'd start with Class 1 using hardware flowcontrol (rtscts) and work back from that.

It needs a password

2. Edit /var/spool/hylafax/etc/hosts.hfaxd and add your local network details to the bottom of the file as shown below:

Code: [Select]

localhost
127.0.0.1
192.168.0.*

Sounds like modem to me... The most important ingredient in a good HylaFAX server....

Also, your FaxDispatch and FaxNotify files should be adjusted...

How come it cannot attach the faximage in the attachment, it just like what we do the attachment for sending out a email?

Can I ask how to do the above, changing the flow control and something?

Did you follow Chaloner's advice? namely modifying FaxDispatch and FaxNotify.

Could you please advise what your make and model number of your modem is, and whether it's external or internal.
