[efax-users] Auto answer

[Bob Estes <bob_estes@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm trying to set up efax in PCLinux to automatically answer an incoming 
fax independently of who is logged on or even if no one is logged on. If 
I understand the documentation correctly, adding the following line to 
the /etc/inittab file should do that:

        s1:45:respawn:/bin/sh /usr/bin/fax answer

Unfortunately, it doesn't.  If I log on and manually set the efax-gtk to 
standby, it will automatically answer the modem until I log out.  Once I 
log out, it stops answering until I log in and manually start it again. 
 Rebooting doesn't make any difference.

Can anyone help?

p.s. This is my first experience with any form of Linux.  I'm trying to 
find a Linux replacement that will provide the capabilities of Winfax Pro.
