[Asterisk-Users] Fax and Asterisk

[Angel Diaz]

Hi  Matt Riddell
                    Here you have the write permission for all

"drwxrwxrwx    2 root     root         4096 Sep 14 16:09 incoming"
And about your question;  How long does it time out for?  It stay there
without hang up until I switch off the fax machine.
I have installed tiff-v3.6.0 and spandsp-0.0.1k.tar.gz and performed all
steps described by Steve Underwood.
Thanks,
Angel.
