I'd like to configure it as a fax server for my clients. My =>desired solution is that incoming faxes are emailed to a specified =>account (i.e. receptionist) for distribution to the recipient, and =>clients inside my network can email their faxes to the fax server for =>transmission - perhaps by putting the phone number in the subject field. =>The majority of the client are Windows-based. => =>Is there something in the ports collection I can use to get close to =>this type of solution? Any suggestions for a better solution? I will be your friend if you're willing to join me. Do you know of some humble project called TPC.INT? Would you be willing to help someone like me to fax to your area? Pls read www-usa.tpc.int and if it interests you, you can e-mail me. I do almost the same thing as you want on FreeBSD in some part of the world. I'm sure we can talk but if the stuff there doesn't interest you, then look at www.hylafax.org or /usr/ports/comms/hylafax Cheers -Wash -- Odhiambo Washington Inter-Connect Ltd., wash@iconnect.co.ke 5th Flr Furaha Plaza Tel: 254 11 222604 Nkrumah Rd., Fax: 254 11 222636 PO Box 83613 MOMBASA, KENYA.
