Netfax configures the modem to send numeric result codes. Some modems must "mix modes" and send "CONNECT" instead of "1". The fix that I used was to modify lib/libfax/response.c around line 222 to check if the numeric response was a 1 and if so to handle it like a "CONNECT" (look at the code for the "RESPONSE_CONNECT" case and add the appropriate parts to the "RESPONSE_NUMERIC" case). If the above doesn't make sense send me a note and I'll send you diffs. Doug
