Remote administration permissions

By default, only administrators will be able to monitor and configure the FAXmaker fax server remotely. If you want additional users to be able to configure and monitor FAXmaker, you must give them either Read rights (to monitor the fax server) or Full Control rights (to monitor & configure the fax server) to the `fmserver$' share on the FAXmaker server machine.

To give users the necessary rights:

1. Open Windows Explorer on the fax server machine.

2. Right-click the FAXmaker directory and choose Sharing.

3. In the Share Name box, click on the down arrow and select fmserver$.

Sharing Tab

4. Click on Permissions.

NT Permissions dialog

5. To add more users or groups to the Permissions tab, click Add.

Add users dialog

6. Select the user or group you wish to give permission and select the Type of Access you wish to give:

Read: if you only wish the user to be able to view the Fax server monitor and fax queue.
Full Control: if you also wish the user to be able to configure the fax server and delete faxes from the fax queue.

7. Click OK to close the Tab.
