One symptom was that when I'd try to dial in with a data call, faxgetty would fire up getty, but the getty would die immediately, dropping the connection. Another problem is that frequently tip and kermit are unable to open /dev/cuaa even when no incoming data call or fax send/receive is in progress. tip and kermit error out with "line in use" msg of some sort. Is this a known failure mode? Am I screwing up in some standard way? Does anyone live happily with hylafax? -Olin
