Several years ago I had to configure a Linux fax server. It sucked.
I've used several commercial products for other Unix OS's and had
great results (notably VSI-FAX). These were just appearing for Linux
as I was setting this up and I was leary of using beta commercial products
in a production environment. So I turned to the open source programs.
Every single one was a pain in the ass to configure. Hylafax probably
worked the best when configured, efax was the easiest to set up. It
really hurt my head working on that project, and I consider myself
pretty good sys admin. Very rarely will I recommend commercial server
software, but in the fax arena I would.

Use Debian and do
apt-get install hylafax

Thank you.
2002-01-07 -+- Milen -+- milend@ansco.com -+- Hello!
I found the article "The Easy Fax Server"
(http://www.linuxfocus.org/English/March2001/article196.shtml)
I installed HylaFAX 4.1 server on RedHat 7.2 .
I followed all steps in the article and I created on my WinNT server
new HP 4 PS printer, I started also Respond but
when i tryed to send a fax from Wordpad i did not get
any "Respond" .(I expected to be asked at least for the
phone number).
I was able to send faxes from the linux machine where the HylaFAX fax server is
installed but I could not send from my Windows NT box.
So what I can do if "Respond" does not seem to work?
Can anyone help me?
Best Regards:
Milen

2003-01-23 -+- Arie Kraai -+- info@persijn.net -+- Very good and short article!
However, I found 1 error: if the -D flag on faxgetty is supplied, 10 faxgetty processes were spawned on my Debian box....
Omitting the -D flag is the solution. Be sure to check your processes!

2004-11-22 -+- hubert -+- info@martinpecheur.com -+- Dear Sir
this is what you write on your website regarding mass mailing (large number of faxes to be sent)
pls let me know if you found a solution for that (can we rely hylafax to outlook or to lotus?)

the former article is this
The drawback of this method is that you have to install StarOffice on the fax server :-( Fax Mailing through the network using respond is not straightforward with StarOffice because a fax number must be entered manually for every recipient!
I am investigating at the moment an alternative solution -+- 80.15.159.58 = Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0; Crazy Browser 1.0.5)
