I am trying to install vsifax on a 64 bit Centos 5.1 system. The Esker staff have been helpful but no cigar.
At first they thought the problem might be related to a 64 bit machine so I tried to install vsifax on a 32 bit Centos 5.1 machine and received the same error.
One of their installation scripts is trying to execute a binary called eula which fails.
./eula: cannot execute binary file
maybe just retry after invoking that command ? chmod +x eula
Thanks for the suggestion. I probably should have posted the deails. I was actually hoping that the protections was the issue but looks to me that it is not
Have you looked at HylaFax, an open source fax system for *nix systems that has been around for many years (it started life as flexfax, but had to change the name since somebody else had it). We have been using HylaFax on various Linux systems for well over a decade with excellent results (and we hosted their mailing list for several years before they registered hylafax.org).
Another commercial package for *nix systems is Faximum. This too has been around since the early '90s.

The pinnacle of open systems is: when moving from vendor to vendor, the design flaws stay the same.
Bill,
Thanks for taking the time to suggest hylafax. We need to be able to convert *.pcl files to tiff files either at the time of faxing or the fax module needs to do this for us. Does hylafax have the capability to convert pcl to tif? vsifax has done what we needed, but to my surprise the more I talk with them the more I get the impression they are not actively wanting to support it for Unix/Linux systems.
I'll take a look at both hylafax and faximum.... thanks for the leads
Greg
