Don't get angry just because you don't get it...

Unless you have a little knowledge in how to admin Unix/Linux, you should not 
be trying to set up something that you will be relying on.
Microsoft solutions are fine... and costly... and locked into what features 
THEY want to give you.... and.......
If that is OK with you, then DO IT, but don't poke fun at Linux developers 
just because you don't know how to use a man page. Besides, they have nothing 
to do with Hylafax.

Hylafax is working GREAT for me, and just replaced a Windows NT fax server 
running three lines on a 3 line license for "david".
I now have the capacity for 8 lines (easily) running on $80 modems, dumping 
the faxes (incoming) to a custom archive system that I built, to a DB that is 
searchable, and it cost me.... hardware costs, and time only.

Did I mention that _I_ was able to add my own archive.... good documentation, 
and "open code" were the contributing factors. And I don't even consider 
myself a programmer. Just an admin with a little linux knowledge, and a perl 
script ;-)

just my 2 cents...
