One way if you are adding FaxMaker to an Active directory domain with Exchange, the other if you are in a peer to peer network called SMTP mode. Since FrugalBrothers is a SBS 2003 shop, I chose the former install. First I must confess, I had forgot to pre-install MS Outlook on the machine, This is necessary for conversion from TNEF to MIME. Once I installed Outlook and made a connection to the Exchange Server, I was ready to proceed. I had copied the FaxMaker installer to the local disk from my network share. After running setup, FaxMaker asked me for an Administrators account to start the service. I next completed the setup wizard, making myself the FaxMaker administrator.

First when using the windows fax drivers, I failed the MTA test, it just kept timing out. This time I chose, to use the GFI driver, and I passed the MTA test. When I launched the FaxMaker configuration, it opened without complaint. The next step is pretty straight forward, I needed to install the GFI connector on the SBS Server.
