Hallo, since longer time I am trying to get sendfax working with SuSE 6.4, without results. Perhaps some one can give me a hint, where to start looking for a solution ? I use a "Creatix" modem 2834 working through an Istec 1008 Analog/digital device to the ISDN network of Telecom in Germany. The modem is working fine ( tested with "minicom" ) on ttys0. The program "sendfax" also recognizes the modem, dials, the bell of the fax/telefon rings once, and then the program hangs with an "no carrier" comment. The total time seems to be always 21 seconds, see the last line of the sendfax.log. It is my impression, that faxing could go better if the program ( modem ? ) would permit a longer ringing, let me say some 45 sec., allowing the fax device to respond, but any attempt to prolong the time through the S7 register has failed up to now. Do some one have any Ideas ? The worst: all was functioning perfect under SuSE 6.1 until I decided to upgrade ;-( Regards, Edgar Weinheim/Germany Attachments: Sendfax configuration file and sendfax.log # SENDFAX CONFIGURATION FILE # # this is a sample configuration file, see mgetty.info for details # # comment lines start with a "#", empty lines are ignored # ----- global section ----- # # In this section, you put the global defaults, per-port stuff is below # tell everybody what's going on verbose y # ... and send everything to the log file (quite detailed) debug 5 # which devices to use for outgoing faxes fax-devices ttyS0:ttyS2 # which fax number to transmit to the receiving station fax-id 49 6201 961253 # which command is used to dial out?
