Hi Deeptht69,
please email me all cores and log files at "eppesuig @ debian.org", thanks.

Then, about your questions:
1. /usr/sbin/faxgetty is correctly stripped. All debugging symbols are in files shipped with *-dbg package. When both packages are installed, you are ok. gdb knows where to find debugging symbols. If you curious about those files, just list content of *-dbg package with command "dpkg -L hylafax-server-dbg".

2. when gdb exit, and you still have faxgetty process, this is because gdb follow the child process and do not control the parent process. faxgetty probably fork a new child process for waiting on a FAX, and restart a new child every time a FAX arrive. In order to better debug this process, it is compulsory to manually kill the remaining faxgetty before proceeding.

Bye,
Giuseppe
