Re: Fax Services

Another thing I would like to know is that with FAX Console on each of the
clients using Windows XP Pro, does the faxes get stored on the workstation
it self or on the server?

What about incoming faxes does it go to the Server & then users access it
from there on a folder or on Fax Console.

Thanks
