I agree with you regarding doc for vgetty. For kvoice to work with fax
and data
what needs to be done. I have only vgetty in inittab file. Fax and data
transfer don't work in my case. When I send fax it is stated it goes to
queue. But when I try to send from queue, no error msg comes. But fax is
not received in the other m/c. When I send fax from other m/c, other m/c
after dialing says no response. In the other m/c I hear the voice
response and then fax tone. After some time I get msg no response. What
to do?
