NAME
       wedged - HylaFAX modem wedged script

SYNOPSIS
       /var/spool/fax/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 configura-
       tion  parameter  described  in  config(5F).   The  default
       wedged script sends electronic mail to the FaxMaster alias
       and attempts to disable any getty processes spawned by the
       init(8C) process.  In addition the faxq(8C) process  auto-
       matically 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 ``_'' charac-
       ters 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.
