[asterisk-users] Cannot send faxes

[Luca Bertoncello]

Hi!

Not sure how long I have the problem, since I really don't send many
faxes, but today I need to send one, and it does not work...

I use HylaFAX 6.0.6-8.1 from Debian repositories and IAXModem
1.2.0~dfsg-3 even from Debian repos.
IAXModem is configured so:

device          /dev/ttyIAX
owner           uucp:uucp
mode            660
port            4569
refresh         60
server          pbxint.lucabert.intra
peername        0049351xxxxxxx
secret          myverypassword
cidname         Familie Bertoncello
cidnumber       0049351xxxxxxx
codec           alaw

I tried (to debug) to send me a "fax" to my mobile phone.
The number will be called, but if I answer, instead of hearing the usual
"sound" of a fax, I only hear a "wait tune".

In Asterisk I see:

   -- Accepting AUTHENTICATED call from 192.168.10.3:4569:

    --        > requested prefs = (),

Any idea what can be the problem?

Thanks a lot
