Winfax PRO 10 & SAPconnect LUCAS asked Feb 9, 2006 | Replies (3) Hello Experts. Is it possible to use Winfax PRO 10 as a fax server? IF so, what should I do to configure it with SAPconnect. Should I define an RFC connection and assign in SCOT transaction. What parameters it should have. What else shoul I do? As I red in docummentation. SAPconnect sends faxes packed in emails. Can Winpax PRO 10 "understand" these? Now I have Winfax PRO 10 installed on my laptop which I want to use as a fax server for test purposes. (I imagine that like SAP connects my laptop through internet or maybe sth. like RFC "local destination"?) I can send faxes with it (from Windows) as well as I cand send faxes (from Businessworkplace to SAPconnect), but then I get the connection error of course. Can you give me any advice? Maybe Winfax PRO 10 is not the best solution (but it's not expensive) Thank You for any comment, LUCAS. Join this group Popular White Paper On This Topic 5 Best Practices for B

Reason When you install the Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2), WinFax Sharing no longer functions. When you start the WinFax Message Manager, you see an error message that is similar to "WinFax PRO cannot connect to Host, RPC server not available." The solution to the problem Follow the instructions if fax sharing client cannot connect to host after installing Windows XP SP2: 1 To ensure that the Windows Firewall is enabled: At the host computer, log on as a user with Administrative privileges. If you already performed sections 1-7 at the host computer, logon at the client computer instead. From the 'Start menu, click 'Settings' and go to'Control Panel'. If using the Classic View, doua new PC with win-xp/sp3 and in trying to setup winfax with sharing to the host pc, which is also running win-xp/sp3 but I keep getting the http://www.pcreview.co.uk/threads/winfax-pro-sharing-problems.3831717/ error RPC server not available when the client tries to connect to the host pc http://www.paulscomputerservice.net/articles/article.php?ID=139 (2 other pcs have no problem). In the even log, I get: Event Type: Error Event Source: DCOM Event Category: None Event ID: 10009 Date: 6/11/2009 Time: 10:35:56 AM User: NAUJAS\Virgil Computer: NAUJAS Description: DCOM was unable to communicate with the computer Home using any of the configured protocols. For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp. Any dcom error ideas what is causing this??? Or how to fix it???

Why would Microsoft have a solution for Symantec's dirty laundry? -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Virgilijus" <> wrote in message news:... > Yep... Seems like the problem is with the RPC serv
to increase the security of the Windows XP operating system. Due to alot of changes made by SP2 to Windows alot of programs ceased to function properly. One of those programs was Symantec's Winfax. Winfax uses DCOM (Distributed Component Object Model) which is one of the areas of Windows XP where Microsoft added additional security. What seems to have caused problems with winfax is this security increase in the DCOM area of Windows. This page will hopefully give you insight and a possible solution into the conflicts of Winfax and SP2. The conflict normally only occurs on Windows XP SP2 machines that are not on a domain. Install Update First of all, install the update from Symantec. It should bring your Winfax software up to version 10.04 or higher. This may fix your problem and prevent you from having to read this page. To get the update first run LiveUpdate to get version 10.03 then download the update from this page: Winfax Update 10.04 Be sure to follow the instructions carefully. You will have to write down a password from Symantec in order to extract the update from the zip file. If the update doesn't fix your problem then read the rest of this page. Step 1: Configuring the Windows Firewall To add the WinFax Controller program to the Windows Firewall Exceptions list. On the Exceptions tab, click Add Program. Select Controller. The "Path:" box displays a path that ends in Wfxctl32.exe. or browse to the install location for winfax (i.e. C:\Program Files\Winfax) and select "Wfxctl32.exe" If the host and client are on the same network (subnet), click Change scope and select My network (subnet) only. Click OK, and then click OK again. In the Programs and Services list, ensure that the box next to Controller is selected. Click OK, and close the Windows Control Panel. Step 2: Enable Remote Administration traffic through the Firewall Go to Start Menu > Run > Type "cmd" > Type "netsh" > Type "firewall" If the host and client are on the same subnet, type: set service REMOTEADMIN ENABLE SUBNET otherwise, type: set service REMOTEADMIN ENABLE ALL Type show service and verify that Remote Administration is enabled.
