Q.
Do I have to restart a server after changing the modem config file?
On another note does one have to restart faxd in order for changes
in the modem configuration file to take effect?
A.
No. The HylaFAX servers will re-read a config file (if needed)
before each send and on any reset. This means you only need to explicitly
restart a server if you change it before doing a receive. You
can also avoid restarting it if you use cu/tip to talk to the modem
since this will cause the server to wakeup and then reset itself
when you exit from cu/tip.
