Data Only Mode

Hey,

I have installed a modem pool on a 486DX running RedHat 5.2.  The 
connection of modems to the pool is working fine with one exception.  
Once in a while, the modem tries to answer the line in fax mode.  This 
confuses me... as I set the local variable "DEFAULT_MODEMTYPE" to be 
data.  And according to the policy.h file, it says:

"data" - data only, no faxing available

I also get the following message sent to the terminal:

sh: /etc/mgetty+sendfax/new_fax: No such file or directory


Is there another place where I am to set this option?  I have included 
a section of the mgetty.log file for one of the modems that tried to 
answer as a fax.

Thanx in advance...
Dean
