GFI Software Fax Machine 12 Manual De Usuario

• Installing GFI FAXmaker 

NOTE: If you use ISDN or Brooktrout fax cards, ensure that you have 
properly installed the cards first. You will have to configure the fax 
lines manually. Click ‘Configure lines’ and configure the fax line(s). 

 

After you have installed and configured the fax devices you have to 
specify the fax users (you can change this later but you must specify 
at least one fax user now). GFI FAXmaker is licensed based on the 
number of users that receive OR send faxes. The procedure is 
different depending on whether you have Active Directory or not: 

If you use Active Directory on your network (i.e. you have one or more 
Windows Server 2000 machines or higher), FAXmaker will connect to 
Active Directory and allow you to specify FAXmaker users and user 
based rules by selecting users from Active Directory, rather then using 
its own user database. This greatly reduces user administration. 

GFI FAXmaker will rely on the email address specified for each user in 
active directory. If you use Microsoft Exchange 2000/2003, or any 
Active Directory integrated mail server (including Windows 2003 POP 
services) this email address is automatically filled in correctly. If you 
use Exchange 5.5 or a non active directory integrated mail server, 
then you have to enter a correct email address for each user that 
you want to ‘fax-enable’ in the Email field of the user properties. 
This can be done from Active Directory Users and Computers.
