Archive Fax to network folder

Guest

In Windows XP Pro SP2, I've been able to receive faxes and archive them to an
alternate folder on the C Drive. Here's the challenge: I would like to
archive received faxes to a network folder so the entire department can view
them, in case the user whose PC is connected to the fax line is out of the
office. I can set it up with no errors, but in testing faxed are not copied
to this network share.

I realize I could just share the fax inbox folder on the local PC and map it
for the rest of the group, but that is not backed up, so this is less than
ideal. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I figured it out. First I had to give the PC permission to the network share.
Rights for the user are not enough in this case. I also had to map to the
folder with the UNC (\\server\share) rather than the drive letter that it was
mapped to. Then it all worked quite nicely.
