Hello Peter,
there are so many differences in paths that I wonder: did you install
from packages?
1) I do not even have a hyla.conf
2) I never touched anything outside /var/spool/hylafax
3) this is on:
OpenBSD 5.3-current (GENERIC) #146: Thu Apr 25 16:55:16 MDT 2013
t...@i386.openbsd.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC
If you installed from ports/packages possibly take this to ports@.
Bye, Marcus
