Re: [PLUG] hylafax help anyone

[Carl Johnson <cjohnson19791979@gmail.com>]

ok here's what i've come up with....

[root@fileserver etc]# cat FaxDispatch

# don't need faxrcvd emailing anyone
NOTIFY_FAXMASTER="never"

# date/timestamp variable
n=`date +%Y.%m.%d.%H.%M`

# samba share destination
t=/shared_as_drive_g/Incoming_Faxes/$n

# date variable for output pdf
dt=`date +%m%d%y`

# just incase we need to spy on this script's activities we'll
# generate a log file
set > /var/log/FaxDispatch.log

# convert hylafax's *.tif to *.pdf in samba share
/usr/bin/tiff2pdf -o $t.pdf /var/spool/hylaxfax/recvq/incoming_fax_$dt.tif

# We only copy to the fax location, archive this just in case
#/bin/cp $FILE $t.tif

# use this to move it instead
# samba share permissions will prevent deletions
/bin/mv /var/spool/hylafax/recvq/incoming_fax_$dt.tif $t

#####################customization complete#######################

# Make infos like faxrcvd
if [ -f log/c$COMMID ]; then
                $SED -e '/-- data/d' \
                 -e '/start.*timer/d' -e '/stop.*timer/d' \
                 -e 's/=/=3D/g' \
                 log/c$COMMID
elif [ -n "$COMMID" ]; then
                echo "$DICTNOLOGAVAIL ($DICTCOMMID c$COMMID)."
else
                echo "$DICTNOLOGAVAIL."
fi


so what do you all think? toads & locusts maybe? fire/brimstone?
