RE: fax software in the domain

[Murad Talukdar <talukdar_m () subway com>]

Maybe a fax software solution could be put in place eg GFI which is what
we will be moving to soon.

I'm curious as to any exploits/damage that can use a fax....snmp maybe?

Subject: fax software in the domain

Hi,

Im my domain we have w2k servers and the workstations
we use xp pro.

On the station of one employee he must use also a fax
with a modem connected
to the telefhone line.

I think that this is a security problem.

I cant remove the fax from his pc .my question is what
are the steps to
protect this pc from being a security problem to all
the network ?

thanks !!
