Greetings. The bug was discussed on the HylaFAX mailing list. See this
thread:
http://groups.google.com/group/fa.hylafax/browse_thread/thread/9b97221987042924
I don't remember how I worked around it. I probably populated the
hosts.hfaxd file manually.

Just to make it clear, this is the problem:
r...@intranet:/etc/hylafax# faxadduser -a pwd admin
r...@intranet:/etc/hylafax# cat /etc/hylafax/hosts.hfaxd
r...@intranet:/etc/hylafax# cat /var/spool/hylafax/etc/hosts.hfaxd

Public bug reported:
The Hylafax package shipped with Ubuntu 9.10 freshly installed
(2:6.0.3-2ubuntu1) seems to have something broken with the hosts.hfaxd
file.
1) If I populate it manually (for example by putting 127.0.0.1 into it),
programs like faxstat ignore it and keep requesting a password.
Public bug reported:
When invoking /etc/init.d/hylafax start I got:
Not starting hylafax daemons since they are already running
while of course the server wasn't up.
I found this thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=864930
and the proposed patch fixed the problem. I'm pasting it her
