Hello everyone, I am trying to set up Winfax 9 pro on a win2k machine. The machine is going to be the host station so I could share the fax modem on it. I set up the host station so it works perfectly fine. When I set up another machine as the client, and try to run the winfax controller, it tells me that "Winfax is unable to connect to the WinFax Host station called Winfaxserver. Make sure an account has been created for you on the host station (using the same name/password used to login on your client station)."

so after reading this message, I went to the host computer again and in the users, I added the username and password of the client station. For the domain, I put the domain name that both the winfax server and the client are apart of. Not the local domain (winfaxserver). I gave the client user "power user" privilages and still no luck. anyone help me?
