<div>Hi,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I run Hylafax with a couple of ISDN Diva Cards, but it's probably similar...</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Are the FaxGetty's running? If you do a "ps aux | grep faxgetty", then you should see a faxgetty process running for each of your "lines", in my case ttyds01 - ttyds16. I can remember a problem with these not re-spawning after handling a call. I had to add:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>21:2345:respawn:/usr/local/sbin/faxgetty ttyds01</div>
<div> </div>
<div>lines in my /etc/inittab to get them to respawn.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>If this doesn't work, give me a shout back and I'll bother my brain cells some more to try and remember what else I've had to make it work.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Cheers,</div>
<div> </div>
