I am running an FC 2 server with Samba 3.0.10. It is serving files and is PDC for several WinXp workstations. There is now a demand to be able to fax from the WinXP workstations, and I'm trying to figure the best way to set up a modem pool on the server and make them available to the workstations. Is that best handled as some kind of resource share through Samba? How would that be configured? I haven't found any documentation about that. If not Samba, is there another Linux program that would make server modems available to WinXP workstations? Thanks for your help. Dave Maier

Seems to me there were some fax applications that showed up as a printer. Perhaps setting up the fax modem as a printer share would work?
