Are there any newbie tutorials??? I am having a hell of a time getting this set up. I can get the system running (redhat 7.3 an a brand new dell server) with 4 internal modems. All modems are configured to receive and all receive fine. But it saves them in a tiff format that I think is not really tiff. I can't view the faxes the redhat machine or on my winxp workstation using paint which supports tiff. I also do not want them saved as tiffs. I want them saved as pdfs and then emailed to my winxp workstation. I also want to have them emailed and then automatically printed to a shared printer attached to a Windows box. Also how does the software handle legal sized faxes and such? I know this is a lot of questions and I have been through the how-to and setup on Hylafax.org.

But I find them assuming you have a strong understanding of Linux. I know enough to get around but I am by no means a guru. Thanks for the help. We are trying to setup a server dedicated to faxes. I want and pushed to have Linux instead of a M$ product.
