   I downloaded the contrib hylafax rpm and installed it.
   I ran    faxq -m /dev/modem.
   I tried to run   sendfax -m test.ps -d "7471290"
   I received a warning telling me that localhost didn't have a
fax service.
   So I added a line to /etc/services, and rebooted, and I still
have the same warning and no fax has been sent out.

   My questions are:
1) What am I doing wrong or omitting?
2) What is the proper way to add a service?
3) If anyone got hylafax to work, could you please post or mail
   to me your /etc/services (at least the modified lines), and
   any other configuration files, I may need?

                                          
                                            Thanks in advance:
                                            Michael J. Yanowitz
