HYLAFAX-CONFIG(5F) HYLAFAX-CONFIG(5F)
LogFileMode
The file protection mode that should be used when creating files to hold session logs. Note that
this value is giveninoctal. The default value of 0600 implies that the log files are not generally
accessible, which is important if sensitive information such as calling card access codes are
logged. If log files are to be publicly accessible, this value may be set, for example, to 0644. See
also chmod(2).
LongDistancePrefix²
The string to use to place a long distance phone call. In the United States, this is ‘‘1’’.
MaxConcurrentCalls¹
The default value to use for the maximum number of jobs for the same destination that are pro-
cessed concurrently.Thus this parameter defines the maximum number of concurrent phone calls
to the same destination. Unless all of your fax destinations have multiple fax lines using the same
faxnumber per destination then MaxConcurrentCalls is probably best left as the default of 1 and
exceptions should be accommodated by the JobControl mechanism.
MaxBatchJobs¹
The maximum number of jobs to batch together in a single call.
MaxConsecutiveBadLines
The maximum number of consecutive erroneous rows of image data that the server will receive
before it deems a page to have unacceptable copyquality.Setting this parameter to zero causes
the server to not check the quality of receivedfacsimile. Facsimile receivedwith error-correction
do not have copyquality checking performed. See also PercentGoodLines.
MaxDials¹
The default value for the maximum number of times the server will place a call for an outbound
job.This value may be overridden by rules in the JobControl mechanism. See also MaxTries.
MaxRecvPages
The maximum number of pages the server will accept in a receivedfacsimile before it aborts the
session.
MaxSendPages¹
The default value for the maximum number of pages the server will permit in a transmitted facsim-
ile. Outbound jobs that exceed this limit are rejected. This value may be overridden by rules in
the JobControl mechanism.
MaxSetupAttempts
The maximum number of times a HylaFAX server program will attempt to initialize a modem
before considering it ‘‘wedged’’.
MaxTries¹
The default value for the maximum number of times the server will attempt to communicate with a
remote site. Note that for a call to be counted against this limit, carrier must be established; this is
in contrast to the value of MaxDials which limits the number of calls that will be placed on behalf
of a job.This value may be overridden by rules in the JobControl mechanism. See also MaxDi-
als.
MinAcceptedLineCount
The minimum number of receivedscanlines allowed on an ‘‘OK’’page. The use of this setting
prevents confirmation from being sent for very short pages.
ModemGroup¹
Define a logical name for a set of modem devices. This parameter can be used to define a name
that clients can use to refer to a collection of modems. The syntax is ‘‘<name><reg ex>’’ where
<name> is the name for the group and <reg ex> is a regular expression that faxq(8C) matches
against known modems. Thus for example, the default modem to use for a job, any,isdefined as
‘‘any:.*’’. This parameter may be specified multiple times to define multiple modem classes.
Modem classes may overlap. The actual set of modems in a modem class that are considered for
