hylafax questions

[jimmy@denwa.info.com (Jim Gottlieb)]

Hello.  I've read the FAQ (which seems to be almost a year old) and
still have some questions.

I'm looking for a fax program to use on our network of machines, most
of which are running Solaris 2.5.1.  Although I'm a command-line kind
of guy, many people in the office prefer a graphical frontend, and I
see that there are some like tkhylafax.  How developed are these?  Are
they foolproof enough for the "average" office worker?  And have people
written WordPerfect macros that can be used to automatically fax?

My other concern is the connection to the modem.  I only see discussion
about modems that are directly connected to a serial port.  Our modem
bank sits on a Livingston Portmaster and our programs access them by
communicating over a tcp socket (i.e., "telnet modemserver 6000"
connects to our modem bank).  Does hylafax support this type of
connection?

Thanks for your help.
