Hi all,
I have experienced situations where the HylaFAX faxgetty process hangs
beyond all efforts to restart it. Usually a "kill -HUP 1 <PID>" would
suffice but sometimes it freezes completely.
How can I fix this without rebooting which is rather difficult as same
machine is our smb-server?
4.7-RELEASE, hylafax 4.1.5, /usr/local/sbin/faxgetty /dev/cuaa0
Can you 'kill -KILL' the process? init should restart it if it dies by
any means, but if it's hung bad enough to ignore a -HUP, you may have
to be more forceful.
I'm not sure if this will leave the modem hung ... but it shouldn't.
