Опубликовано: 29.08.2014 | Автор: Николай

HylaFAX Installation: HylaFax is an enterprise-class system for sending and receiving facsimiles as well as for sending alpha-numeric pages. Download the the latest release and their dependency sharutils first; then use rpm to install them.

wget ftp://ftp.hylafax.org/binary/linux/redhat/6.0.6/hylafax-server-6.0.6-1rhel6.x86_64.rpm
wget ftp://ftp.hylafax.org/binary/linux/redhat/6.0.6/hylafax-client-6.0.6-1rhel6.x86_64.rpm
wget ftp://ftp.distributed.net/centos/6.5/os/x86_64/Packages/sharutils-4.7-6.1.el6.x86_64.rpm
rpm -ivh hylafax-server-6.0.6-1rhel6.x86_64.rpm hylafax-client-6.0.6-1rhel6.x86_64.rpm sharutils-4.7-6.1.el6.x86_64.rpm

After install successfully, when running sendfax to test, get error like /usr/sbin/textfmt: No font metric information found for “Courier-Bold”:

# sendfax -n -d 991215 /etc/hylafax/hyla.conf
/usr/sbin/textfmt: No font metric information found for "Courier-Bold".
Usage: /usr/sbin/textfmt [-1] [-2] [-B] [-c] [-D] [-f fontname] [-F fontdir(s)] [-m N] [-o #] [-p #] [-r] [-U] [-Ml=#,r=#,t=#,b=#] [-V #] files... &gt;out.ps
Default options: -f Courier -1 -p 11bp -o 0
Error converting document; command was "/usr/sbin/textfmt -B -f Courier-Bold    -Ml=0.4in -p 11 -s default &gt;'/tmp//sndfaxZDqe83' &lt;'/etc/hylafax/hyla.conf'"

This is a bug in ghostscript-8.70, to fix the error, download & extract Courier-Bold.pfa and Courier-Bold.afm from htmldoc package, copy it to /usr/share/fonts/default/ghostscript/; then edit /usr/share/ghostscript/8.70/Resource/Init/Fontmap.GS, search and change line from ~~/Courier-Bold /NimbusMonL-Bold ;~~ to /Courier-Bold (Courier-Bold.pfa) ;

# wget http://www.msweet.org/files/project1/htmldoc-1.8.28-source.zip
# unzip htmldoc-1.8.28-source.zip
# cp htmldoc-1.8.28/fonts/Courier-Bold.afm /usr/share/fonts/default/ghostscript/
# cp htmldoc-1.8.28/fonts/Courier-Bold.pfa /usr/share/fonts/default/ghostscript/

Try sendfax again now and it should work.

IaxModem compiler and installation: Install development tools first; then download IaxModem latest source file and untar it; then build IaxModem with dynamic linking.

# yum groupinstall "Development tools"

# wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/iaxmodem/files/iaxmodem/iaxmodem-1.2.0/iaxmodem-1.2.0.tar.gz/download
# tar xzvf iaxmodem-1.2.0.tar.gz

# cd iaxmodem-1.2.0
# cd lib/libiax2
# ./configure --prefix=/usr
# make
# make install

# cd ../../lib/spandsp
# ./configure  --prefix=/usr
# make
# make install
# cd ../../
# ./build

After build successfully, copy executable file iaxmodem to /usr/bin, also copy /usr/lib/libiax.* to /usr/lib64, if don’t copy libiax.*, there will be cannot find shared libiax errror when start iaxmodem.

# cp iaxmodem  /usr/bin/
# cp /usr/lib/libiax.*  /usr/lib/
