Re: flexfax: WHFC and Windows client questions

["Steven Cruysberghs" <broux-werken@skynet.be>]

You have to set up the viewer program in the WHFC system settings.
NT comes with a program to view tiff (fax) files. (wangimg.exe)

You also have to share you faxin ("/var/spool/fax/recvq") directory on your
Linux machine (using SAMBA).

The "Program and argument for..." in the WHFC system setting would be
something like this:

C:\Program Files\Windows NT\Accessories\ImageVue\wangimg.exe
"//your_hostname/your_sharename_recvq/%s"

Make sure the SAMBA share works.

Hope this helps.
