NOTES AND ANSWERS TO COMMON QUESTIONS 1. There are now lists of faxes by applicable AIX VERSIONS in the fax.data subdirectory. The file names are 31.faxes, 32.faxes, and 41.faxes. 2. The script /u/hsim/other/references/fax.update.sh script is an option for submitting new and updated fax information. 3.
