Hi All,

Why does this work:

      #/usr/sbin/faxgetty -D ttyS1

but, placing this in my /etc/inittab does not?

      m0:2345:respawn:/usr/sbin/faxgetty ttyS1

I have run "init q" several times to no avail.
Can anyone see a typo I am missing?

# ps ax | grep -i faxget | grep -v grep
<nothing>

After invoking from the command line, I get
# ps ax | grep -i faxget | grep -v grep
  9827 ?        Ss     0:00 /usr/sbin/faxgetty -D ttyS1

What am I missing?

Many thanks,
-T
