If I understand you correctly, "From a Windows XP box, you want to view the
incoming faxes belonging to Windows 2003 Server". To do this you need to
share the fax printer from the Windows Server 2003 machine & add a printer
connection from the Windows XP box. Your Fax Client Console on Windows XP
will now show incoming faxes from Windows Server 2003 provided you have the
required permissions.

Thanks for your information. I missed the permissions. One more question,
Are there any further rounting methods for incoming fax? is it possible to
route the incoming fax to the different emails or locations based on more
details information ? will it enhance in the sp1 ?

Thanks again.

For incoming faxes on Windows 2003 server you hace the following routing
options:

1) Print it
2) Store it in another location

[both of these can be configured by the fax configuration wizard]

3) Email it.

[For configuring the same, open Fax service manager [Fax Console->Tools->Fax
Service Manager], right click on "Fax [local]", goto receipts tab, fill in
the smtp email information and check the "Use these smtp settings..."
checkbox. Then in the left pane of the mmc, goto Devices and
Providers-><device>->Incoming Methods->Route though email. Right click on
the same and enable it. Goto properties [double click it and go to email
tab] and enter the recipient email address]
