  1). (Q) I get the following error after I install gfax:
      	    Unhandled Exception: GConf.NoSuchKeyException: Key
      (A) Loging out and login back in should fix this.  The GConfd
          process is not picking up the new keys.  
  
  2) (Q) How do I add Hylafax users and passwords on the fax server?
     (A) Login to your server as "root" and addusers with the following
         command:  
		     faxadduser -a <secret password> -p <secret password> username
         The -a and -p otions are passwords that you choose, -a must be given
		 for administrative rights to your jobs.  Admin rights allow you to
		 remove jobs from the server.
		 
  3) (Q) How do I send an entire phone book?
     (A) When sending the facsimile choose the phonebook name and click "OK"
	     this will select every number in the selected phonebook.  You may
		 de-select individual entries by un-checking them.
  
  4) (Q) How do I send faxes from OpenOffice programs?
     (A) To create a printer so you can fax via OpenOffice follow these steps:
         1) Run the OpenOffice printer admin program "oopadmin or oopadmin2"
         2) Choose "New Printer"
         3) Choose "Connect to a fax device"
		 4) Choose "A specific driver".
         4) Choose "Apple LaserWriter" as a printer (see note 1)
         5) In the "Choose a command line dialog" enter "gfaxlpr"
         6) In "Choose a name" enter "Gfax - Fax sender".
		 8) Make sure "Remove fax number from output" is checked.
         9) Click "Finish"

         You can now use Gfax from OpenOffice.  You can ignore the popup
		 from OpenOffice requesting a fax number, just click OK.
		 
         Note 1: You can choose any printer other than the Apple LaserWriter
                 as long as it is a postscript printer.  Gfax will only work 
                 with postscript printer drivers.  I have always had good luck 
                 with the Apple LaserWriter.  Other choices might be the HP 
                 LaserJet with postscript.
  
  5) (Q) How do I get cover pages working?
     (A) Coverpage support is not yet included.  Most people just add the 
	     cover page from their word processor.
