I recieved the book over the weekend. Whoever wrote chapter 10 did a good job explaining advanced fax servies. I was wondering if you could tell me about making a Sharepoint for several different fax lines IE Front office, Back office, VP private Fax with different sharepoint permissions.

Which of the following retains the information it's storing when the system power is turned off? Submit ». I can personally vouch for that chapter - it does cover multiline scenarios.
Maybe it isn't the connection speed, perhaps it's something stupidly simple. Then I guess back to basic troubleshooting.
I re-read your initial post, I see the things you listed that you've tried. Have you tried a different line? I understand that it seems hard to believe that the server worked on the same line and this doesn't, but did you check the logs of the old server, maybe there were unnoticed problems, maybe the modem faxing speed was lower.
Have you check send and receive buffer sizes, are they the same as the server? At this point I'm just trying to help you think of things to try you may not have. I'm about as perplexed as you are.
I still have a sneaking suspicion transmission speed may have something to do with it, but I obviously can't verify that and I can't produce where you need to change the setting. Are you able to try a loopback fax like from one modem to the other, or perhaps even to a fax machine internally?
I like the loopback fax option I will have to figure out how to get that to work. The other thing I thought of is possibly and issue with the serial cable I have brand new and came with the MultiTech modem , I ordered a new one and it will arrive tomorrow.
The phone line is an analog line provided by Comcast, so technically not a POTS line, but behaves like one. With the loopback you should be able to configure one modem to only send and one modem to receive. They would need to be on separate lines for this to work. MvT is an IT service provider.
Okay, It appears to be working. Not sure exactly what fixed it as I did a few different things all at the same time as one last ditch effort before I was going to open a case with Microsoft. Seems to be working for now. It is going to take a few days of it working for me to believe this is really over.
As for Tyler and Kevin I'm a little surprised you two are suggesting hosted fax, I know you two have been big proponents of all the SBS can do, and having people take advantage of it. The faxing isn't what it used to be. After almost a week of working the Issue just came back. I am looking in to other options at this point. Incoming is working fine, but outgoing is doing the same thing.
The weird thing is, if an attempt gets 'Fatal error' it continues to do so on subsequent retries. Another fax that basically looks identical that is going to the same destination number can work first time. I've seen 3 faxes queued to the same number, 2 will get through first time and the 3rd will try 10 times what I set the retries to and get a fatal error every time.
I've seen this happen on multiple installations so it's not something specific in any case - almost without fail a Win 7 or server etc. Even attempts to the same destination will work interleaved with Fatal errors occuring to the same destination. Before you say 'it's a bad document causing the fatal errors', I can take the same job from the original source and resend it through to the fax server, and it will succeed first time to the same destination.
A few days ago, I upgraded all the workstations to Windows 7. At this point, proceed with the following:. Now that you have the backup file on the removable drive, simply plug it in and then restore the file into the Sharepoint instance you created in part two on Server Two.
The remainder of these steps will be taken on the SBS server. At this point we are essentially swapping the new content database for the old one that contains the site that we want to migrate.
