No. To quote the mail from Steve Underwood: "Many people have it working that way. Very few people use it for fax pickup. To change it from answerer to originator mode you just need to add the "caller" option when you call txfax." You need to tell txfax that it is to act as the initiative-taker (originator) of the fax conversation. This is orthogonal to the direction of the transfer (that is selected by choosing txfax or rxfax). SpanDSP defaults to being the terminator and not the originator unless given the "caller" parameter. Have you tried adding the "caller" option to txfax? > For testing, I am using txfax within a sample.call file which I drop into > /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing, as per latest docs. > > Listening at the receiving fax, the tones "sound" right, although I must > confess that I don't actually speak "fax". _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
