Subject: RFC for SAM's funky new c/s protocol?
Date: Thu, 01 Aug 1996 14:18:38 BST
From: "Mr. Arlington Hewes"
Hylafax(1) has this to say:
information. For information on the server-side support
provided with HylaFAX consult hfaxd(8C). For documenta-
tion on the client-server fax protocol consult RFC XXXX
(to be filled in).
Have the XXXXs become numbers as yet? ;-)
The document does not exist and I have no schedule for when it'll be
ready. However the protocol is reasonably straightforward and the
basic operation can be easily deduced by looking at a protocol trace
for sendfax, faxstat, faxrm, faxalter, etc. You also have all the
code. Basically think FTP and add in the concept of a job.
