The NetCFax
server or clients can be installed on any of Windows 98, Windows ME,
Windows 2000 (Pro & Server), Windows 2003 Servers, Windows XP
with or without SP1 or SP2, and even the Microsoft Small
Business Servers, and finally on Windows Vista. Windows
Servers may be domain controllers or not. NetCFax
(server & Clients) even run on Windows Virtual PC (2007). the use of
the Fax Client by multiple concurrent users under the Windows XP Pro "Fast Task Switching"
system and also when running them in Windows Remote Desktop (RDP)
Sessions on Windows 2000/2003 server systems.
The NetCFax
entry level system provides a great solution for your faxing needs, as
it not only provides a fax server, but also the
freely distributable fax client, plus a powerful and flexible command line processor
that can even popup a quick and easy to use window to allow faxes to be
created and sent to the fax server very rapidly, and the server also has
a full programmers API/SDK that will handle all data transfer,
including the TCP communications between your application and our fax
server machine across the network for you.
NetCFax
does not need you to send it an email, (although it even supports that
as well), as the fax clients communicate directly with the fax server(s)
using direct TCP and UDP connections across any network, including
across the Internet if required. All you need to do is to run the
fax client, connect and login to any available NetCFax
server, and you can then check for faxes received or create
and send faxes out. You can even connect from a hotel room using a
dial-in Internet access if you need to do so.
The fax server can even
automatically create PDF copies of all the faxes that are
received, and the Pro version can create PDF copies of sent
faxes as well.
Naturally, NetCFax
can forward copies of all received faxes by email to a single or even
multiple email addresses, allowing you to have received faxes delivered
directly to your email system or hand held email device, or even
both. If you have the PDF option enabled, you can even choose to
have the PDF copy emailed to instead of the original fax (TIF) file if
you prefer.
It can even forward all
received faxes on to another fax # if required, and this is controlled
by the fax senders CSID, so faxes form different senders can be
forwarded to different external fax recipients.
Whatever your faxing needs may be, we believe that you will discover
that NetCFax can certainly
provide almost every solution you may want.
You can install and use
the NetCFax clients on every
machine on your network if you wish, irrespective of the NetCFax license
count you may have, as the NetCFax Server
handles all control over which clients may connect to it at any
point in time. This includes having a single fax client
installation on an XP Pro used by multiple Windows logins on that machine
by taking advantage of it's "Fast Task Switching" feature,
multiple instances of the fax client running on a single (standard) PC,
and of course, a single installed Fax Client on a Domain Server can be accessed and used by multiple Remote Desktop Sessions.
With the release of
v2.70 (and all later releases) we have significantly changed the
way the fax clients maintain each individual NetCFax login account's
details, including their address books, and also changed the way the
clients use TCP to receive messages from the fax server, which allows
them to be run normally in a Terminal Services environment.
This new system provides
maximum benefit when being used on XP Pro machines that have multiple
Windows login accounts and use "Fast Task Switching" to allow switching
between them, or of course on a Windows "server" 2000 or 2003
that provides Remote Desktop Sessions to your networked PC's.
With this release the single installed
NetCFax client on any XP Pro system can be started and run independently
from each other, under any/every available Windows login account
(using a different NetCFax login account of course) and each fax client
can be used normally in each one even though the fax client is still
running on the same machine under other Windows logins at the
time. This applies to XP users using "Administrator",
"Limited" or "Power User" Windows login accounts as
well.
The same applies to a fax
client installed on a Windows 2000/2003 Server, as it allows multiple
Remote Desktop Sessions to use the same fax client installation, but
with individualized configurations for each NetCFax login account.
All changes made to a
client's configuration while logged in are of course only saved for that
specific NetCFax login account, and do not effect other NetCFax login
accounts at all.
