Zetafax 4.50M

Easy installation

Ease of installation is important forany software, especially for such complex software as enterprise fax servers.The previous version of Zetafax (reviewed in "The Fax of Life," WindowsNT Magazine, February 1996) had some difficulties in this area,particularly with configuring a Brooktrout fax adapter. Zetafax 4.50M addressesthese difficulties and has an easier installation process.

Before you install the Brooktrout fax adapter, use Windows NT Diagnosticsto identify any available I/O addresses and interrupts on your system. Thendetermine which of these settings the Brooktrout fax adapter can use. Configurethe adapter's I/O address and interrupt to match the available settings, andinstall the adapter.

The Brooktrout adapter is properly integrated with the Zetafax software,which includes drivers for the Brooktrout adapter. To configure the adapterinterface, from a command prompt, go to the ZFAXSERVERBTROUTINSTALLdirectory. ZFAX is the directory where you installed Zetafax. Run the installprogram, and enter the interrupt and direct memory access (DMA). Choose thedefault for all other options, but choose "no" when the installer askswhether you want the driver to automatically load at start up.

Additional new features include support for cc:Mail address books andIntegrated Services Digital Network (ISDN), group notification for inboundfaxes, and interoperability with Zetafax's modem sharing.
