No you cannot get the shared fax without a third party program
Why not just get SBS 2000 with SQL and a strong enough server to handle =
it all
Cheaper than adding a second server

I have to migrate a single server SBS 4.5 installation to a 2 server
installation. The second server will be running SQL Server 2000
exclusively. The first server will be running exchange and providing =
fax
services for the network. Essentially I am splitting the SBS =
functions over
two servers to maximize the performance of SQL server. SQL Server =
2000
seems to require a server Windows Server so I guess I'll have to run =
that on
the second machine. The first machine will either run SBS 2000 or =
Windows
Server 2000, depending upon whether I can get the shared fax =
facilities in
Windows Server 2000. If that 's the case, then I'll just run that and
Exchange without any SBS overhead.
Any comments on the above would be helpful. Especially those that =
might
recommend a direction to go in and a means of migrating from SBS 4.5 =
with a
minimum of pain. I know MS has some knowledge base materials on SBS
4.5-2000 migration but I haven't found any that refers to SBS to =
Windows
Server + Exchange migration.
Thanks for your help.
Robin.
