The following -blurb is direct from Sam: - - $Header: /usr/people/sam/fax/RCS/HOWTO,v 1.14 93/05/24 11:42:16 sam Exp $ - - How To Obtain This Software (in case all you get is this file) - -------------------------------------------------------------- - The source code is available for public ftp on - sgi.com sgi/fax/v2.1.src.tar.Z - (192.48.153.1) - - You can also obtain inst'able images for Silicon Graphics machines from - sgi.com sgi/fax/v2.1.inst.tar - (192.48.153.1) - - For example, - % ftp -n sgi.com - .... - ftp> user anonymous - ... <type in password> - ftp> cd sgi/fax - ftp> binary - ftp> get v2.1.src.tar.Z - - In general, the latest version of the 2.1 release of the software is - always available as "v2.1.src.tar.Z" or "v2.1.inst.tar" in the ftp - directory. This file is a link to the appropriate released version (so - don't waste your time retrieving the linked file as well!) Any files of - the form v2.1.*.patch are shell scripts that can be used to patch older - versions of the source code. For example, the file v2.1.0.patch would - contain patches to update v2.1.0.tar.Z. (Note to beta testers: this is - different than the naming conventions used during beta testing.) Patch - files only work to go between consecutive versions, so if you are - multiple versions behind the latest release, you will need to apply - each patch file between your current version and the latest. - - - Obtaining the Software by Electronic Mail - ----------------------------------------- - Do not send me requests for the software; they will be ignored (without - response). If you cannot use FTP at all, there is a service called - "ftpmail" available from gatekeeper.dec.com: you can send e-mail to - this machine and it will use FTP to retrieve files for you and send you - the files back again via e-mail. To find out more about the ftpmail - service, send a message to "ftpmail@gatekeeper.dec.com" whose body - consists of the single line "help". - - - Obtaining the Software Within Silicon Graphics - ---------------------------------------------- - Internal to Silicon Graphics there are inst'able images on the host - flake.asd in the directory /usr/dist. Thus you can do something like: - - % inst -f flake.asd.sgi.com:/usr/dist/flexfax - - to install the latest version of the software on your machine. - - - What to do Once You've Retrieved Stuff - -------------------------------------- - The external distributions come in a compressed or uncompressed tar - file. To extract the source distribution: - - % zcat v2.1.src.tar.Z | tar xf - - - (uncompress and extract individual files in current directory). To - unpack and install the client portion of the inst'able distribution: - - % mkdir dist - % cd dist; tar xf ../v2.1.inst.tar; cd .. - % inst -f dist/flexfax - ... - inst> go - - (Note, the dist subdirectory is because some versions of inst fail if - the files are in the current directory.) Server binaries are also - included in the inst'able images as flexfax.server.*. They are not - installed by default, so to get them also you need to do: - - % inst -f flexfax - ... - inst> install flexfax.server.* - inst> go - - The SGI binaries were built for Version 4.0.5H of the IRIX operating - system. They should work w/o problem on earlier versions of the - system, but I have not fully tested this. Also, note that to install a - server on an SGI machine, you need to have installed the Display - PostScript execution environment product (dps_eoe). Otherwise, the fax - server will not be able to convert PostScript to facsimile for - transmission. - - If you are working from the source distribution, look at the file - README in the top of the source tree. If you are working from the inst - images, the subsystem flexfax.man.readme contains the README file and - other useful pieces of information--the installed files are placed in - the directory /usr/local/doc/flexfax). Basically you will need to run - the faxaddmodem script to setup and configure your fax modem. Consult - the README file and the manual page for faxaddmodem for information. - - - FlexFAX Mail List - ----------------- - A mailing list for users of this software is located on sgi.com. - If you want to join this mailing list or have a list-related request - such as getting your name removed from it, send a request to - - majordomo@whizzer.wpd.sgi.com - - For example, to subscribe, send the line "subscribe flexfax" in - the body of your message. The line "help" will return a list of - the commands understood by the mailing list management software. - - Submissions (including bug reports) should be directed to: - - flexfax@sgi.com - - When corresponding about this software please always specify what - version you have, what system you're running on, and, if the problem is - specific to your modem, identify the modem and firmware revision. - - +--------------------------------+ | TWEAKING CONFIGURATION OPTIONS | +--------------------------------+ @@ -1905,7 +1778,7 @@ MAILERS 1 [e]smtp, relay SMTP channel 2 uucp-* UNIX-to-UNIX Copy Program 3 netnews Network News delivery - 4 fax Sam Leffler's FlexFAX software + 4 fax Sam Leffler's HylaFAX software 5 mail11 DECnet mailer |
