FAXCONFIG(8C)					    FAXCONFIG(8C)

NAME
       faxconfig   -  dynamically  change  HylaFAX  configuration
       parameters

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/contrib/bin/faxconfig [ -q queue-dir ] [ -m modem ] [
       parameter value	... ]

DESCRIPTION
       faxconfig  sends	 messages  to  a  HylaFAX  server process
       telling it to install new values for one or more	 configu-
       ration  parameters.   These new values are maintained only
       for as long as that  server  process  executes;	to  setup
       long-lasting configuration parameters the appropriate con-
       figuration file(s) must be edited (see config(5F)).

       faxconfig is especially useful for setting certain config-
       uration	parameters  that control the operation of HylaFAX
       server processes.  For example, by manipulating the Modem-
       Priority	 parameter  of one or more faxgetty(8C) processes
       it is easy to dynamically reconfigure the order	in  which
       HylaFAX will assign modems to outbound jobs.

       If  no modem is specified with the -m option, then faxcon-
       fig will send messages to the central  scheduler	 process,
       faxq(8C).   If  a faxgetty process is to be contacted, the
       specified modem must be the last component of the  charac-
       ter special device filename the modem is attached to.

       Consult	the  config(5F)	 for  the  list	 of configuration
       parameters that can be set with faxconfig.

OPTIONS
       The following options are available:

       -m devid	 Direct messages to the faxgetty process  servic-
		 ing  devid instead of the central scheduler pro-
		 cess, faxq.  The devid is an identifier  derived
		 from  the  name  of the modem's device file; for
		 example  ttym2	 for  /dev/ttym2,   term_10   for
		 /dev/term/10.

       -q dir	 Use a spooling area other than /var/spool/fax.

FILES
       /var/spool/fax		      default spooling area
       /var/spool/fax/FIFO	      fifo for contacting faxq

       Consult	hylafax-server(5F)  for	 a complete discussion of
       the structure and content of the spooling area.
