- Description:
- (excerpt from HylaFAX FAQ, http://www.hylafax.org/content/About_HylaFAX)
HylaFAX is a facsimile system for UNIX systems. It supports:
o sending facsimile
o receiving facsimile
o polled retrieval of facsimile
o transparent shared data use of the modem
o sending messages to pagers
Facsimile can be any size (e.g. A4, B4), either 98 or 196 lpi, and
transmitted/received as either 1D-encoded or 2D-encoded facsimile data
(2D-encoded data is frequently more compact and hence takes a shorter
time to communicate). Any modem that supports one of the standard
interfaces for facsimile operation can be used; i.e. any Class 1, Class
2, or Class 2.0 modem.

activate it.
Setting up: (for impatients)
Invoke /usr/local/sbin/faxsetup, and answer the questions.
Mostly, accepting the defaults should work well.
When you are asked to specify the name of tty device, use "cuad1"
instead of "ttyd1". Otherwise it does not work well.
Consult /usr/local/etc/rc.d/hylafax.sh.sample for startups.
For accepting incoming FAX/data calls, modify /etc/ttys as below
and send SIGHUP to init process:
>cuad1 "/usr/local/sbin/faxgetty" dialup on secure
Be sure to rerun /usr/local/sbin/faxsetup after updating your hylafax version

Fix the conditional post-patch target to look in ${WRKSRC}, rather
than in the hardcoded hylafax-4.1 I goofed, when I implemented this
back then, and the upgrader did not notice, because this is only
invoked, when PREFIX is different from /usr/local
Predicate USE_REINPLACE on PREFIX not being /usr/local too -- there
is no need to demand the new sed otherwise. Set the REINPLACE_ARGS
to -i "". I don't know, why this is not a default... |

. Configure DIR_HTML correctly. Nothing appears to get installed there,
but its location was non-standard and making some people nervous.

. Remove dependencies on bash, HylaFAX builds and (reportedly) runs
fine with /bin/sh.
. Add a knob (PAGESIZE to correspond to the HylaFAX configure variable)
so one can choose a paper size other than US Letter.
. Use noninteractive configure when building in BATCH mode.
The PR also suggests adding an option to install hfaxd setuid so it
can be run from inetd. This seems bogus though as inetd.conf allows
one to specify the user to start the process as.

This is based on the submission, but with a few tweaks. In particular,
the package list needed some fixes.

Prepend the bsd.port.pre.mk to the conditional patching /usr/local ->
${LOCALBASE}. The condition was, naturally ${LOCALBASE} != /usr/local, but
the value of LOCALBASE is not necessarily known without bsd.port.pre.mk.
Sorry for the breakage. |

Upgrade to 4.1 (release -- released in July). The size of the pkg-plist
diff is due to the default location move from /var/spool/fax to
/var/spool/hylafax. |

Revert to 4.1b2; the security hole in the vendor distribution of this version
was already patched in FreeBSD, so there's no reason to make this port
unavailable until it can be upgraded properly. Since the previous commits did
not leave this port buildable, no PORTEPOCH bump is required even though the
PORTREVISION has gone backwards. |

Somehow I botched this upgrade -- I must have been building the previous
version even though I updated PORTVERSION. Since this was a security update,
mark it BROKEN for now until someone can fix it. |

As threatened on freebsd-ports: all startup scripts know about the two options
`start' and `stop' now (unless I have forgotten any). This allows us to call
the scripts from /etc/rc.shutdown with the correct option. |
