After much wasted time, I just stayed with the changes that John Nadeau suggested and it all works well. Nothing else seems to work so far, so I don’t have any more time to keep trying with no success.
The security compromises are probably not relevant given the small network in which I am. Thanks John.
My questions still remains, does anyone have a Winfax 10.04 network that runs well without any changes to the settings?

Yup, some of my PCs with factory XP sp2 works on winfax 10.04.
However, some of our newly bought in PCs (XP sp2) do not work on 10.04. I have to install 10.03 and manually follow synmentc suggest to change the security setting…….

So I would say there are different version among Windows XP Sp2…

Hi,

Here’s what I tried for my new xp sp2 machine with the security issue.
I directly installed the patch 10.04 right after the 10.03 installation into my new xp sp2 machine Then I got the security error. I tried and tried again with unstall and install(winfax 10.03 and 10.04)…still no luck..
Then I started to examine back and forth if there is any difference firewall, security setting between my old sp2 xp window. I noticed that there are couple things that the new xp machine didnt go with such as the remote setting, anonymous setting etc

So I unstalled the winfax pro from the new machine and then put it back with only winfax pro 10.03. Carefully followed the guidelines from symantec. i.e. modification of firewall remote and anonymous user. Ding ding…..
Everything back on the track then.

So I suspected that there are still different factory security setting for XP windows….

And that also explains why some ppl have winfax connections error and some ppl doesnt…

Hope this help…
