Hi,

	I've added the -x 4 to the inittab.  Unfortunately I do not have 
another class 2 modem to test on this system.  Where will the debugging 
info from the -x 4 show up.  Which log where I mean.  I tried to receive a 
couple more faxes Monday with the same results.  I spoke to Multitech 
support Monday.  The modem is very new and there are not any firmware 
upgrades.  On the plus side there have not been any other issues like this 
reported to them.  Should be solvable by code tweaking is a hopeful 
thought.

Thanks,
