No. Fax goes over normal analog telephone-connections (yes, I know there is fax for ISDN as well...). Since your cable internet connection is not an analog telephone-connection, you need to use some fax-gateway which can take input by for example email and send it out as a normal fax on the normal telephone-system. And I sure hope all such fax gateways charge for that service. ;) -- Eivind Olsen eivind@aminor.no To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
