Hylafax en Ubuntu
De GALPon WiKi
Documento creado por capri99 (Carlos Rodríguez). Cualquier aportación será bienvenida :-)
Después de haber configurado el módem SmartLink PCI que tengo, me decido a configurar el hylafax para poder enviar faxes por la línea de teléfono convencional.
Aunque este COMO está hecho desde Ubuntu, se puede extrapolar a cualquier distribución de GNU/Linux fácilmente.
Instalo los paquetes necesarios con sus correspondientes dependencias
sudo apt-get install hylafax-server hylafax-client hylafax-doc
Después de la instalación de los paquetes necesarios, comienza automáticamente la configuración del hylafax-server:
Configurando hylafax-server (4.2.5-1) ... Adding system user `faxmaster'... Adding new group `faxmaster' (114). Adding new user `faxmaster' (114) with group `faxmaster'. Not creating home directory `/var/spool/hylafax'.
Setup program for HylaFAX (tm) 4.2.5.

Looks like /usr/bin/base64-encode supports base64 encoding. Checking system for proper server configuration.

Make /var/spool/hylafax/bin/ps2fax a link to /var/spool/hylafax/bin/ps2fax.gs.
Make /var/spool/hylafax/bin/pdf2fax a link to /var/spool/hylafax/bin/pdf2fax.gs.
Update /var/spool/hylafax/status/any.info.
HylaFAX configuration parameters are:
[1] Init script starts faxq: yes
[2] Init script starts hfaxd yes
[3] Start old protocol: no
[4] Start paging protocol: no
Are these ok [yes]?

You do not appear to have any modems configured for use. Modems are configured for use with HylaFAX with the faxaddmodem(8) command. Do you want to run faxaddmodem to configure a modem [yes]? Done verifying system setup. Creating /etc/hylafax/setup.cache from /var/spool/hylafax/etc/setup.cache.

Tal y como nos indica, no hemos configurado aún nuestro módem. Para ello nos comenta que empleemos el comando faxaddmodem.
sudo faxaddmodem
Y nos pregunta en qué puerto está el modem escuchando (en mi caso es el ttySL0):
Serial port that modem is connected to [ttyS0]? ttySL0
Ya en este momento nos preguntará diferentes datos necesarios para poder enviar faxes como prefijos, número nuestro, algún código que identifique nuestro fax, etc. En aquellas preguntas en las que no modifico la opción por defecto (la que está entre corchetes) simplemente le doy al Intro o Return para aceptar.
Ok, time to setup a configuration file for the modem. The manual page config(5) may be useful during this process. Also be aware that at any time you can safely interrupt this procedure.
Reading scheduler config file /var/spool/hylafax/etc/config.
No existing configuration, let's do this from scratch.
Country code [1]? 34 Area code [415]? 91 Phone number of fax modem [+1.999.555.1212]? +34.91.234.5678 Local identification string (for TSI/CIG) ["NothingSetup"]?

The non-default server configuration parameters are:

Are these ok [yes]? yes
Ahora procederá a ponerse en contacto con el módem para ver qué capacidades tiene:
Now we are going to probe the tty port to figure out the type of modem that is attached. This takes a few seconds, so be patient. Note that if you do not have the modem cabled to the port, or the modem is turned off, this may hang (just go and cable up the modem or turn it on, or whatever).
Probing for best speed to talk to modem: 38400 OK.
About fax classes:
The difference between fax classes has to do with how HylaFAX interacts with the modem and the fax protocol features that are used when sending or receiving faxes. One class isn't inherently better than another; however, one probably will suit a user's needs better than others.
Class 1 relies on HylaFAX to perform the bulk of the fax protocol. Class 2 relies on the modem to perform the bulk of the fax protocol. Class 2.0 is similar to Class 2 but may include more features. Class 1.0 is similar to Class 1 but may add V.34-fax capability. Class 2.1 is similar to Class 2.0 but adds V.34-fax capability.
HylaFAX generally will have more features when using Class 1/1.0 than when using most modems' Class 2 or Class 2.0 implementations. Generally any problems encountered in Class 1/1.0 can be resolved by modifications to HylaFAX, but usually any problems encountered in Class 2/2.0/2.1 will require the modem manufacturer to resolve it.
If you're unsure and your modem supports it, use Class 1.
Hmm, this looks like a Class 1 modem. Product code (ATI0) is "SmartLink Soft Modem". Other information (ATI3) is "/dev/slamr0". DTE-DCE flow control scheme [default]? Modem manufacturer is "Unknown". Modem model is "Unknown".
Using prototype configuration file class1...
A pesar de que ha detectado el módem correctamente, no encuentra una configuración "prototipo" para controlarlo. En principio nuestro módem debería cumplir con los comandos típicos de Hayes, por lo que le damos a aceptar en todas las preguntas. Lo ideal es configurar este apartado con el manual del módem.
There is no prototype configuration file for your modem, so we will have to fill in the appropriate parameters by hand. You will need the manual for how to program your modem to do this task. In case you are uncertain of the meaning of a configuration parameter you should consult the config(5) manual page for an explanation.
Note that modem commands must be specified exactly as they are to be
sent to the modem. Note also that quote marks (") will not be displayed
and will automatically be deleted. You can use this facility to supply
null parameters as "".
Finally, beware that the set of parameters is long. If you prefer to use your favorite editor instead of this script you should fill things in here as best you can and then edit the configuration file
"/var/spool/hylafax/etc/config.ttySL0"
after completing this procedure.
Command to enter Class 1 [AT+FCLASS=1]? Command to stop and wait prior to sending PPM [AT+FTS=7]? Command to stop and wait prior to sending TCF [AT+FTS=7]? Command to stop and wait prior to sending EOP [AT+FTS=9]? Extra bytes in a received HDLC frame [4]? Maximum time to wait for OK after aborting a receive (ms) [200]? Maximum wait for initial identification frame (ms) [40000]? Delay after completing training (ms) [200]? Command to ensure silence after receiving HDLC and before sending [AT+FRS=7]? Delay after failed training (ms) [1500]?
The modem configuration parameters are:
Class1Cmd: AT+FCLASS=1 Class1PPMWaitCmd: AT+FTS=7 Class1TCFWaitCmd: AT+FTS=7 Class1EOPWaitCmd: AT+FTS=9 Class1FrameOverhead: 4 Class1RecvAbortOK: 200 Class1RecvIdentTimer: 40000 Class1SendMsgDelay: 200 Class1SwitchingCmd: AT+FRS=7 Class1TCFMaxNonZero: 10 Class1TCFMinRun: 1000 Class1TrainingRecovery: 1500
Are these ok [yes]?
Aceptando la configuración por defecto, nos crea los archivos correspondientes:
Creating new configuration file /var/spool/hylafax/etc/config.ttySL0... Creating fifo /var/spool/hylafax/FIFO.ttySL0 for faxgetty... done. Done setting up the modem configuration.
Checking /var/spool/hylafax/etc/config for consistency... ...everything looks ok; leaving existing file unchanged.
Don't forget to run faxmodem(8) (if you have a send-only environment) or configure init to run faxgetty on ttySL0. Creating /etc/hylafax/config.ttySL0 from /var/spool/hylafax/etc/config.ttySL0. /var/spool/hylafax/config
Finalmente nos indica que ejecutemos faxmodem ttySL0 para que hylafax pueda enviar faxes a través de él.
