6       faxlock - tell a HylaFAX server to switch to LOCKWAIT state
7

SYNOPSIS

9       /usr/sbin/faxlock [ -q dir ] modem
10

DESCRIPTION

12       faxlock  sends  a  message  to a HylaFAX faxgetty(8C) process servicing
13       modem telling it to change its state to LOCKWAIT
14
15       The specified modem can either be the name (typically the  last  compo‐
16       nent  of  the terminal port the modem is attached to), or the full name
17       of the associated FIFO named pipe file, e.g. ``FIFO.ttym2''.
18

OPTIONS

20       -q dir    Use a spooling area other than /var/spool/hylafax.
21

NOTES

23       When faxgetty changes it's state to LOCKWAIT, it will start looking for
24       the  UUCP  lockfile  for  the  device, and when the device is no longer
25       locked, proceed to re-initialize the modem.
26

FILES

28       /var/spool/hylafax                 default spooling area
