you have to create a fax-account

Hi

I have Windows Vista x64 installed and I'm faxing over a Windows 2003
Server. Everything works. I can send and receive faxes. But, every time I am
starting a new fax-job (on the client), I get the message, that I first have
to create a fax-account and I should open the help file to find out how to
do this... how can I get this error away? ... I mean, I have such an account
and it works... so why is there this message??

thanks
Rudolf

Re: you have to create a fax-account

What path statement did you use to the server when you created your account?
If you elevate WFS on the client, do you still get the same message?

Re: you have to create a fax-account

Hi... well, the problem was, that I got a "Fax" but not a "Fax at ..."
printer installed when I created the fax-account... but after removing the
account and the "Fax" printer and then recreating the fax-account, it
created the correct printer and now it works... :-) ... sometimes I don't
want to understand everything... not often, but... this is one of those
cases *g*.

But... thanks anyway...
