Fully networked fax server plus clients system that uses TCP/IP connectivity for all communication between server and clients. Clients can have access to just their own, or all faxes held on the server, depending on login rights they are assigned. The fax client fully supports multiple instances, meaning it can be used on Windows XP Pro systems with mutliple accounts under Fast Task Switching, and also on Windows 2000 and 2003 servers on Remote Destop Sessions. Faxes can be both sent and received by the server, and the use of multiple fax modems is fully supported. Received faxes can be easily routed to login accounts or even groups, optional security timeouts to log clients off are provided, which stops all access to client configuration settings. Faxes may be printed locally or remotely, and the server can generate automatic printing of faxes, cover sheets and transmission reports on both received and outgoing faxes if required. The received fax cabinet drawers are now updated in real time, and the fax server offers built-in support for the Transym OCR system. No network shares or user permissions are required on the fax server's machine due to the use of TCP/IP for all connections between server and clients, making the system easy to install and also more secure. A full programmers API is provided to allow you to "fax enable" your own applications, even if the NetCfax server is on a different networked PC, using the API's built in TCP communications ability.
