- If you have no sound card you will need a driver called speaker.drv.
- It is available via anonymous ftp on many sites

- Subject: fax from windows to faxmodem hanging off a sun ?
-
- Does anyone know of what is required to get a PC running windows3.1
- and a winsock stack (pc/nfs5.0) to be able to fax using, say winfaxpro (or
- some other similar package) to a faxmodem connected to a sparcstation ?
- This sun (SunOS 4.1.2) is currently serving print queues and nfs to the pcs.
-
- The faxmodem that we are thinking of getting is the maestro 144FM (but we
- are open to suggestions on this, as well).

- I am getting a long pause on starting the newsreader. Sometimes 25-30 seconds
- long, but this is aparrently before any winsock calls (connection to NNTP) is
- initiated because the window does not even open during this pause, the hard

- put in a 'Initialzing, please wait' message into the next revision? BTW keep
- up the good work all!
