Fax Software

[Darin Perusich]

the faxserver should just pass the postscript (and tiff) document right 
through. take a look in /var/spool/hylafax/docg, this directory should 
contain any faxes, in tiff format that have reached the server. also 
look in /var/spool/hylafax/logs.

are you able to send a postscript file from command line?
