Faxing/Alpha Paging under Linux

[ubu]

Has anyone used any fax programs that run under Linux? I am looking for something that will allow me to fax from Red Hat, and I would also like it to be able to send Alpha pages from Red Hat. If one program would do this, that would be great, but if I have to get two different programs, then that is fine too.

Anyone used a program that would handle these type of requests?

Thanks!

I haven't ever used any of them, but, I think there are several fax programs that come WITH RedHat. :) (do "man fax" from a command line, for one of them)

do "man fax" from a command line,
Just a little tidbit... 'man' is a bit specific in nature, but if you want to quickly (broad) scan your man files then use:
$apropos fax

then drill down with 'man'...

However, this is making the assumption that the fax software (RPM) is in fact installed on your system...

I may have to take another look at HylaFax myself. I attempted to use it about five years ago for our office network but the Win32 client was really weak. Seems like there are a bunch of different options now.
