efax-gtk-socket-client(1)				      General Commands Manual					 efax-gtk-socket-client(1)

NAME

       efax-gtk-socket-client - a client of efax-gtk to work with lpd/lprng

SYNOPSIS

       efax-gtk-socket-client [hostname] [port]

DESCRIPTION

       This program enables lpd/lprng to access the efax-gtk socket server. Meaning the user can send faxes to a printer, which will ack as a fax.

       It  takes  two arguments - first a hostname to connect to, and secondly a port number at that hostname to connect to.  All efax-gtk-socket-
       client does is to read from standard input (in this case from lpd/lprng) and passes it to a socket at the hostname and port  number  passed
       as arguments to it (namely the hostname of the computer efax-gtk is running on - normally you would specify localhost - and the port number
       of the socket).

       fax:
	    :sd=/var/spool/fax:
	    :mx#0:
	    :sh:
	    :lp=/dev/null:
	    :if=/var/spool/fax/efax-gtk-faxfilter:

       This will cause a printer by the name of "fax" to be available, which (if printed to) will send the file to the efax-gtk socket server.	If
       you  set  efax-gtk  to  listen on a port other than port 9900, you will need to amend the file /var/spool/fax/efax-gtk-faxfilter by hand to
       specify the correct port number on which efax-gtk is listening.

       Don't forget to restart the lpd printer daemon after amending /etc/printcap.

OPTIONS

       [ hostname ] - The name of the host to listen to. Usually should be locahlhost.
       [ port ] - the port number to listen to on the [ hostname ].
