Installing a Zetafax Server on a notebook computer

 

---

 

The Zetafax Server comes with the option to install a copy onto a notebook computer, so you can send and receive faxes while away from the office. When you start the Zetafax Client, it automatically detects if your PC can connect to a network fax server. If not, a version of the Zetafax Server can be run locally, using the fax modem in your PC.

 

To install a copy of the Zetafax Server on a notebook computer:

 

1.Ensure that the Zetafax Client is installed on the computer and that you can send and receive faxes when connected to the network.

2.Insert the Zetafax CD into the notebook's CD-ROM drive. The installation program should run automatically. If this fails, browse to the CD-ROM drive and double-click Setup.exe to run the installation.

3.Select the Install Zetafax, then Zetafax Server options.

4.The installation program asks if you want to install Zetafax on a notebook. Choose Advanced Server Install, select Notebook Server Install and click Next.

5.The installation program installs the Zetafax Server files to the computer. After the files have installed, you are prompted for the location of the network server. Enter the path of the shared Zetafax Server folder on the network (e.g. \Zetafax Server). The installation program makes the necessary changes to the Zetafax configuration settings file to enable the Zetafax Server to run locally when the notebook is not connected to the network.

6.At the end of the installation, Zetafax Configuration runs and prompts you for a starter system license number. If you are connected to the network, Zetafax enters the starter system license details automatically.

 

Notebook user licensing

Zetafax systems are licensed for a fixed number of users with a single Zetafax Server. You can create accounts on the server for the licensed number of users. In addition, any of the Zetafax users can run a standalone copy of Zetafax Server on a notebook computer, which may or may not connect to the network.
