Hi Alex
Did you get the answer to your first question ? Did you succeed in using the emulated modem option for taking fax calls to hylafax ?
I put the following in spandsp.conf.xml and got /dev/FS[0-4] devices as soft links to /dev/pts/[4-8]. My freeswitch is running as root user so I did not face the issue you did.
<modem-settings> <param name="total-modems" value="5"/> </modem-settings>
What next? Could you point me to some doc in hylafax?
(And before Steve lashes out at me again, I must clarify, I do not want to just play around, but my boss is clueless and wants me to evaluate hylafax :()

I need to stamp out some FUD
1) It works going both ways. Its been complete for some time and in use. 2) I can't find anything but helpful comments from Steve.
Anthony. I won't comment on point 2 as I think it's unproductive, but I also have no idea how to use the emulated modems for inbound fax. If you could suggest a way that would be great. I was expecting to see a registered endpoint but nothing appeared, so I am lost as to what I should put in my dialplan to, for instance, direct a call from a PSTN gateway or FreeTDM endpoint to the virtual modem (so Hylafax can answer it). Also I have the problem that unless FreeSWITCH is run as root, the device nodes are not created. Unless in the last few weeks some docs have been updated on this, I'm still stuck with T38modem.
