NAME

       wedged - HylaFAX modem wedged script

SYNOPSIS

       /var/spool/hylafax/bin/wedged devid device

DESCRIPTION

       bin/wedged  is  the  command  script  invoked  by the facsimile server when a modem is deemed to be in an
       irreparable state and requires operator intervention.  This decision is  based  on  the  setting  of  the
       MaxSetupAttempts configuration parameter described in hylafax-config(5).  The default wedged script sends
       electronic mail to the FaxMaster alias. The interval at which emails are sent can be  configured  in  the
       etc/FaxDispatch  file  by  setting  the  WEDGED_EMAIL_INTERVAL  variable to the desired number of minutes
       (emails will be sent no more  than  every  WEDGED_EMAIL_INTERVAL  minutes,  until  the  wedged  condition
       persists).   If  the  variable  WEDGED_DISABLE_FAXGETTY  is  set  in etc/FaxDispatch then the script will
       attempt to disable any faxgetty processes spawned by the init(8) process for the problematic  modem.   In
       addition the faxq(8) process automatically disables use of the modem for servicing outbound jobs.

       The  devid  argument  is  the identifier derived from the name of the modem's device file by substituting
       ``_'' characters for ``/'' characters; e.g.  term_10 for /dev/term/10.  The device argument is  the  name
       of the character special device associated with the modem.

       If there exists an executable file /var/spool/hylafax/etc/resetmodem then that file will be executed upon
       execution of the wedged script in an effort to recover the modem.
