Re: Fax Via Ethernet to As400 outq -- MIDRANGE-L

We are attached via Ethernet without CA or NT. Win98 as clients.
Just peer to peer for now, we use Mochasoft for emulation. We are installing
Outlook through ISDN/ISP for our email. All thats left is docs thru Word.
That is why we are peer to peer at this point. Future looks like NT for us,
so we can secure some things and backup easier. Also imaging in future.
Faxstar is on 400 only. Not on pcs. We put **fax type commands in our RPG
pgms and use the cl to move to outqs on 400 now. User does nothing. We want
similar in Word.
