As far as I know IAX2 is unsupported/does not work with FreeSWITCH. 
Hence my question.

My old Asterisk box has ISDN and sends and receives faxes fine:
ISDN -> chan_capi -> asterisk -> iaxmodem -> hylafax

But you do realize this is the FreeSWITCH mailing list right? Since you 
are referring to Asterisk :)

If you are interested in FreeSWTICH & sending/receiving faxes then have 
a look at: http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Mod_spandsp

I never used buildopal.sh. Sorry I forgot to mention that. That script 
indeed seems to do the wrong thing.

I used Sirius (ptlib 2.8/opal 3.8) and could build mod_opal fine. Iirc 
someone on this list mentioned he was successfully using ptlib 2.10 and 
opal 3.10 (the Luyten release).
