HYLAFAX-CONFIG(5F) HYLAFAX-CONFIG(5F)
PollLockWait
When polling for the presence/removalofaUUCP lockfile, the time (in seconds) to wait between
checks. Lockfile polling occurs to ensure the fax server doesn’tcollide with another process using
the modem.
PollModemWait
The time (in seconds) to wait between checks for a modem to become ready for use. Modem
polling occurs when a modem fails to reset cleanly.
PriorityScheduling
Indicates whether the HylaFAX scheduler should utilize available priority job scheduling mecha-
nisms to enhance realtime execution, particularly with Class 1 configurations on older or slower
systems.
Currently PriorityScheduling is available for IRIX, SVR/4, HP-UX, and POSIX-compliant (i.e.
Linux) operating systems. The default value varies to maintain traditional HylaFAX behavior.On
IRIX, SVR/4, and HP-UX systems where the configure script detects one of the functions sched-
ctl(), priocntl() or rtprio() the default is true. The only other supported priority mechanism is
POSIX sched_setscheduler(), which is used on Linux, OpenServer and possibly other systems. On
such systems, as well as on systems where no priority scheduling mechanism exists, the default is
false."
PS2FaxCmd¹
The command to invoke toconvert a POSTSCRIPT document submitted for transmission to TIFF/F,
suitable for transmission; see ps2fax(8C).
QualifyPWD
Astring that specifies whether or not the identity of calling facsimile machines should be checked
against an access control list before receiving facsimile. If QualifyPWD is non-null, then only
messages from facsimile machines identified in the file specified by the string (typically
etc/passwd)will be accepted; similar to QualifyTSI.
QualifyTSI
Astring that specifies whether or not the identity of calling facsimile machines should be checked
against an access control list before receiving facsimile. If QualifyTSI is non-null, then only mes-
sages from facsimile machines identified in the file specified by the string (typically etc/tsi)will be
accepted; see tsi(5F). If QualifyTSI is not specified in the configuration file, or the value is null,
then all incoming facsimile messages will be accepted.
RecvDataFormat
The data format (compression scheme) to write receivedfacsimile data when copyquality check-
ing is performed on the host. (When copyquality checking is not done by the server,for example
when error correction protocol is used, the receivedfacsimile data is written exactly as it is
receivedfrom the modem.) The format may be one: ‘‘1-D MH’’, ‘‘2-D MR’’, ‘‘2-D MMR’’, or
‘‘adaptive’’.An‘‘adaptive’’ format causes the receiveddata to be written using the data format
negotiated by the sender and receiver. Note that while 2-D MMR is the most space-efficient data
format the resultant file may not be viewable (certain commonly used programs do not properly
read multi-strip TIFF with 2-D MMR data).
RecvFileMode
The file protection mode that should be used when creating files to hold incoming facsimile. Note
that this value is giveninoctal. The default value of 0600 implies that only the facsimile user can
read receivedfacsimile. If incoming facsimile are to be publicly accessible, this value may be set,
for example, to 0644. See also chmod(2).
RejectCall
If this is set to true, the current call will not be answered, and will be rejected. This option has no
effect if set in the configuration file, but when set by the DynamicConfig program, controls the
current call. This options supersedes the obsolete QualifyCID option.
