The fax and data differentiation is handled by the modem - they have different handshake sequences. If the phone line is noisy and/or the modem firmware is a bit buggy, the modem does not correctly identify the handshake. If the modem gets this wrong, then the "getty" program can't help. This does not mean that we should not put the facility into portslave. Regards Ian - Ian Forbes ZSD http://www.zsd.co.za Office: +27 +21 683-1388 Fax: +27 +21 64-1106 Snail Mail: P.O.

Rsync of course is what you want to use for the content transfer, but I guess you already knew that. I suggest using Apache bulk virtual hosting for the multiple domains.

In my opinion Hylfax is by far the best fax package. It allows Class 1 or Class 2 modems to be used. Mgetty's fax facility only allows Class 2. As over 90% of domestic quality 56k modems either have no Class 2 support, or Class 2 that is so buggy that it is not worth using this is a big plus factor. (Almost all Windows faxing software uses Class 1 mode.) Hylafax has a "faxgetty" program that answers the modem. It allows dial-out like mgetty, but it also communicates with the hylafax daemon to report on the status of the modem. It has facilities for calling alternate programs for voice and data calls. I am not sure if it can detect ppp frames. However the weak link is normally with the modems detection of the type of the incoming call (voice, fax or data), which is not very reliable. I am not sure if Class 1 modems can do this at all. On commercial sites, I normally lock modems taking incoming fax calls into "fax only" mode to guarantee satisfactory performance.
