I'm not sure where to ask this so I hope I'm not OT.

My friend has a title company with about 6 workstations. She was using a fax
server that depended on NT. The fax server's motherboard went bad so now
it's time to find another solution. She's looking for a very simple network
fax solution. She handles pdf files often and faxes out loan packages of
around 100 pages. She wants to get away from the NT server. I know she uses
Linux for her regular server. Any ideas for which software and hardware (if
necessary) to use? I'm know nothing about networking so I don't know how to
help her.

Why is she not using the standard FAX Service inbuild in Windows XP etc?
Incoming FAXes she could convert and route to email with Aloaha
