+
+If you need to start hylafax at boot, add this to /etc/rc.d/rc.local:
+
+ # Starting the HylaFAX hfaxd and faxq Daemons at Boot.
+ if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.hylafax ]; then
+ /etc/rc.d/rc.hylafax start
+ fi
+
+Edit /etc/inittab and add a line similar to:
+ m0:2345:respawn:/usr/libexec/hylafax/sbin/faxgetty ttyS0
+where 'm0' is unique in inittab and 'ttyS0' matches the device
+name(s) used at the outset of the faxaddmodem script.
+
+With root permissions, execute '/usr/sbin/faxsetup'.
+When finished, faxsetup will automatically run faxaddmodem for you.
+Generally, you can follow all of the defaults except those for FaxMaster,
+the local fax number(s), TSI, and any modem-specific information in
+faxaddmodem.
+
+It would be wise to run faxcron and faxqclean regularly from cron so that
+the queue directories do not clutter up and fill the storage device. Many
+installations run faxqclean every hour and faxcron every day. Insert
+something like this into your uucp or root crontab file:
+ 0 * * * * /usr/sbin/faxqclean
+ 0 0 * * * /usr/sbin/faxcron | mail -s "HylaFAX Usage Report" faxmaster
+
