You'd be better off using iaxmodem on another machine tied in with hylafax. Much more robust than rxfax. I have successfully sent and received faxes over IP through a TDM400p card to my Brother fax machine. Darrick David Kerr wrote: > I see that libtiff and spandsp packages are included in as

[Astlinux-users] Fax detect/receive

2008-11-07 Thread David Kerr
I see that libtiff and spandsp packages are included in astlinux. Are the RxFax/TxFax functions and nv_background_detect functions also included? (see http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/AGX+Extra+Addons+for+Asterisk ) I'm bold enough to try and see if I can receive a fax over a VoIP line with AstL

Hello Tom, if you like we could have a look at it together. Please point me the location of the source files and documentation and I'll have a look. If it is feasible to integrate, we'll do it together. regards, Ingmar Tom Chadwin wrote: >> Have a look at how package/zaptel/ works... You >> ca

Unionfs turns the Astlinux RAM-based disk into one with persistent storage... anything that you write to the disk gets saved onto the CF card and "replaces" the version that is on the RAM disk. So all (yes every) configuration file will survive a reboot. If you use genunion, you no longer need the

Mart, Sorry, been busy. If you are using both an existing key disk AND created a new unionfs partition, you should see a script called 'movekd'. I created the script, but it has not been tested extensively. It does the following: Moves files from a key disk to a unionfs partition based on f
