Hi Terry,

The HylaFAX server is designed to run on Posix compatible operating 
systems such as  Linux, Unix, BSD, etc.  It does not run on Windows.

You are correct that the HylaFAX server talks to the fax 'modem'.

HylaFAX clients are designed to run on many different operating systems 
including Windows.  They communicate with the HylaFAX server over the LAN.

In a typical deployment you will have a HylaFAX server running on a PC 
with a Posix operating system, and multiple HylaFAX clients running on 
PC's with Windows or Posix operating systems.  The server and clients 
will communicate over the LAN.
