[Asterisk-Users] Software FAX Modem--One Last Request For Help

Here's one last plea for help from the list before I give up on the totally
cool software FAX modem concept in complete despair (for now, at least,
until I have more time to dig into it)....
I am simply not able to successfully receive a FAX no matter what device I
transmit from or how I bring the call into Asterisk. My lastest effort was
a call from a Pitney-Bowes FAX machine into an X100P on an analog extension
off our Nortel Option 11C PBX. It's not the Nortel PBX--we have analog
modems and faxmodems all over the place here, and even a Lucent Portmaster
on a CT1, hanging off that PBX and all work fine. Besides, I've already
tried several different faxmodems plugged directly into an S100U on the *
box running RxFax, I've tried sending calls across my T100P, I've tried
TDMoE on a lightly-loaded Ethernet segment, I even tried an IAX trunk just
for kicks. None of these configurations gave substantially different
results. The only thing I haven't tried is a TDM400P, because I don't own
one.
Anyway, here is my configuration. Does anyone see ANYTHING that looks
amiss? Do I need SCSI drives? A P4 CPU? Patched kernel? Disabled sound?
Enabled sound? Windows Server 2003? (just checking...) Does anything jump
out? What's going wrong for me?
Sorry for the long message, and thanks for any pointers anyone can provide,
Randy Johnson
