modem sharing in Win200 server.

[2651]

Hi,

I've got a small problem that is troubling me.

I want to set up a small fax server on Win2000 server but I haven't got any more phone jacks near the server. I do , however, have spare modems connected to workstations. So, I was wondering if there was a way to share a modem connection over the network. I've had a look at some third party modem sharing software but am unsure if this is what I need as it seems to deal with Internet connection sharing.

Ideally, I would like to share out a demand dial connection that I am able to manually (or automatically) use the modem to send faxes through (and receive also).

Any help would be grealy appreciated.

Thanks.

I would recommend something like WinFax Pro. This will accomplish what you're trying to do.
