The process was forcibly terminated since it looks like it goes on in an
infinite loop. The program is not stopping to key in the country code. I am not
sure what the problem is but looks like there might be a problem with the
hylafax-server package itself.
I tried installing hylafax-server package on couple of other systems all
running on Ubuntu Hardy Heron and encountered the same issue.
Any help in solving this issue is most appreciated.
