using more than one iaxmodem
Submitted by rickt on Thu, 01/31/2008 - 9:40am.
I have been running for some time now with one iaxmodem and hylafax to receive faxes and deliver them via email. Works great! So now I wanted to add two more iaxmodems so I created two more iax2 extensions, changed the port numbers so they would be unique, added two more iaxmodem configurations to /etc/iaxmodem and added two more ttyIAX's to faxgetty. Restarted trixbox and created a context in extensions.conf to route a called number to one of the new fax extensions. ps -axf shows both iaxmodem and tty's running but when I make an inbound call to the number it just rings and never picks up. Here is the ps list
2727 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/sbin/iaxmodem
2735 ? S 0:00 \_ /usr/sbin/iaxmodem
2736 ? S 0:00 \_ /usr/sbin/iaxmodem
2737 ? S 0:00 \_ /usr/sbin/iaxmodem
3622 ? Ss 0:49 /usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyIAX
3623 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyIAX1
3624 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyIAX2
I've checked the iaxmodem config files and inittab to make sure the names and ports are the same.
FYI , a fax call made to ttyIAX works just fine
trixbox ver 2.2.3
Any helpful hints would be greatly appreicated
