Hi,

We have a trixbox 2.4 system with a Sangoma A102D card. One PRI connect to our PSTN and the other connect to a Norstar system.
We want to iinstall Hylafax+ and IaxModem.
Reading some setup in this forum, it mentionned to create, in the /etc/inittab, as many lines as we have channels, so I figured that we will have 23 lines similar to this one
t2:23:respawn:/usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyIAX .
Is that correct or should each line refer to a specific ttyIAXx where the x correspond to the channel number ?
Any other input as far as setup is concerned will be appreciated.
What program would you suggest to install on the client side (all Windows XP system) ?

Thank you

Danrav

You need one entry per

You need one entry per iaxmodem config file you made, and the ttyIAXn should match what you put in the iaxmodem config file.

For example, I have 16 of them, named:

/etc/iaxmodem/iaxmodem-cfg.ttyIAX0

through

/etc/iaxmodem/iaxmodem-cfg.ttyIAX15

And in /etc/inittab I've got:

f0:2345:respawn:/usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyIAX0

through

f15:2345:respawn:/usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyIAX15
