HylaFAX script /etc/init.d/hylafax ist not usuable for automatic startup, thus I created my own version which is modified from the original: #!/sbin/runscript depend() { need net } checkconfig() { SPOOL=/var/spool/fax if [ ! -f $SPOOL/etc/setup.cache ] ; then eerror "No $SPOOL/etc/setup.cache file exists! Use faxsetup(8C) !" fi } start() { ebegin "Starting HylaFAX Servers." SPOOL=/var/spool/fax checkconfig || return 1 . $SPOOL/etc/setup.cache # Just in case these are not in setup.cache yet if [ -z "$HFAXD_SERVER" ]; then HFAXD_SERVER=yes fi if [ -z "$FAXQ_SERVER" ]; then FAXQ_SERVER=yes fi if [ -z "$HFAXD_OLD_PROTOCOL" ]; then HFAXD_OLD_PROTOCOL=no fi if [ -z "$HFAXD_SNPP_SERVER" ]; then HFAXD_SNPP_SERVER=no fi IS_ON=/etc/chkconfig # NB: chkconfig is IRIX- and Linux-specific FAXQ=$SBIN/faxq HFAXD=$LIBEXEC/hfaxd FAXQUIT=$SBIN/faxquit FAXPORT=hylafax # designated port for new protocol SNPPPORT=444 # official port for SNPP if test ! -x $IS_ON ; then IS_ON=true fi if $IS_ON verbose ; then ECHO=echo else # For a quiet startup and shutdown ECHO=: fi # # Figure out which brand of echo we have and define prompt # and printf shell functions accordingly.

Install HylaFAX 2. rc-update add hylafax 3. reboot and wait for the error message Actual Results: HylaFax was not active Expected Results: HylaFAX starting upon reboot (solution presented above) Again, here is my fix, a new init-script /etc/init.d/hylafax #!/sbin/runscript depend() { need net } checkconfig() { SPOOL=/var/spool/fax if [ ! -f $SPOOL/etc/setup.cache ] ; then eerror "No $SPOOL/etc/setup.cache file exists!

Created attachment 19927 [details] /etc/init.d/hylafax This is a new HylaFAX init-script: /etc/init.d/hylafax for HylaFax to actually work upon a reboot.
Thanks, I'll take a look and test it.
It looks like the current quasi-rh style init script is generated by the Hylafax configure script. I know the older 4.1.5 init script worked for me, so I'm not sure what changed (or what broke) since then. However, Patrick's new one is much more Gentoo-like and (after fixing a missing else clause) seems to work for me, so... There's a 4.1.7 version with the new init script; it seemed significant enough for an r2 bump (but it's ~x86 for now). Please test and let me know if it works for you. Thanks.
