I have one way to share FAX services from UNIX to Macs. You'll need
HylaFAX (see http://www.vix.com/hylafax) on the UNIX side.

On the Mac side, you'll need MacFlex, my HylaFAX client, which provides
"print-to-fax" from all your Mac applications. You can find the client
and more information at http://www.eats.com/MacFlex/.

Cheers,

Rob
