SBS >> Faxing with the SBS 2003 I have added a modem to be able for all domain users to
fax and receive faxes. I have couple questions:
- Do I need to install the fax service on client machines
as well as on the SBS?
- How can I manage the recepients of the faxes, and will
I be able to print all faxes as they come in?

If someone can direct me to a link regarding setting up
the fax service in SBS will be great.

Thanks
Joe

SBS >> Faxing with the SBS 2003 Setting up the Fax Services in SBS 2003 is fairly simple. You can use the
Help files or the Wizards in Server Manager. You can have the faxes
emailed, printed, delivered to Intranet Web Site, or stored in a folder.

You need to install the Shared Fax Client if you wish to have your uses
"fax" from their desktops.

SBS >> Faxing with the SBS 2003 Just run the Fax Setup on the server.
and when you set up a user
http://SERVER/computersetup
Add the fax Services.

When you setup up the FAX on the Server you have Options.
Send to Printer
Send to Email (I have it sent to the admins since 90% of all faxes are SPAM)
And send to something else I forget? Oh a Archive. (I think)

I have it Archived and Sent to a Group List. (The Admins belong to this
group..)
This way they get an Email with the fax attached and forward it.

YES You can have it sent automatically to the Printer (Cheaper than the fax
Printing.)
but I don't like to Kill Tree's (Trying to get people to print Duplex is
hard.)

You can have 1 of these Options or all (Archive, Print, and Emailed.)
It's up to you how you configure it but it's easy and it works.
