I'm just catching up on some old posts here, so this might not be
relevant anymore...

How about accepting the call into rxfax, and then creating a call file
which will re-send the fax to it's real destination. ie, asterisk will
receive the fax, and then send it, instead of just transparently acting
as a gateway ?

perhaps, in between the receive and send you might use scp to copy the
file to the remote asterisk server, and then ssh to create the call file
on the remote asterisk....

Adam
