Efax: can't rename lockfile ...

[Johann Spies at Johann <jhspies@futurenet.co.za>]

I have posted this question before last week, but did not get any
replies.  So forgive me for trying again.  I still could not solve the
problem even after removing efax and resinstalling a newer version.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
I never had this problem with efax before:
---------------------------
$ fax send 426191 jan.ps
jan.ps is postscript...
efax: Thu Jun  3 16:01:09 1999 efax v 0.8a (Debian release 08a-4)
Copyright 1996 Ed Casas
efax: 01:09 Warning: local ID (0331-461310) has non-standard characters
efax: 01:09 removed stale lock /var/lock/LCK..ttyS1 from pid 1249
efax: 01:09 Error: can't rename lock file TMP..01274 to : No such file or
directory
efax: 01:09 failed -> jan.ps.001
efax: 01:09 failed -> jan.ps.002
efax: 01:09 failed -> jan.ps.003
efax: 01:09 failed -> jan.ps.004
efax: 01:09 done, returning 2
There were errors (see 0603160109.log).
-----------------------------
How do I solve this problem?

Thanks

Johann
