NAME¶
faxlock - tell a
HylaFAX server to switch to LOCKWAIT state
SYNOPSIS¶
/usr/sbin/faxlock [
-q dir ]
modem
DESCRIPTION¶
faxlock sends a message to a
HylaFAX faxgetty(8) process
servicing
modem telling it to change its state to LOCKWAIT
The specified
modem can either be the name (typically the last component
of the terminal port the modem is attached to), or the full name of the
associated
FIFO named pipe file, e.g. ``FIFO.ttym2''.
OPTIONS¶
- -q dir
- Use a spooling area other than /var/spool/hylafax.
NOTES¶
When faxgetty changes it's state to LOCKWAIT, it will start looking for the UUCP
lockfile for the device, and when the device is no longer locked, proceed to
re-initialize the modem.
FILES¶
/var/spool/hylafax default spooling area
/var/spool/hylafax/FIFO fifo for contacting faxq
Consult
hylafax-server(5) for a complete discussion of the structure and
content of the spooling area.
