ShareISDN software allows sharing an ISDN-Card's functions with other users in a network. This facilitates multiple people to send faxes and perform other ISDN-related functions in a company.
To use ShareISDN, you simply need to install the ShareISDN Server on the computer with the ISDN-Card (SISsetNT.exe for WindowsNT/2000, SISset95.exe for Windows95/98/ME). The ShareISDN Client (SICsetup.exe) is then installed on every computer that needs to access the ISDN-Card of the Server computer.
ShareISDN supports nearly every application that supports the CAPI 2.0 specification, which is the standard programming interface for ISDN-Cards. This means that most ISDN applications are compatible with ShareISDN, including the widely used Fritz! software.
The function of the ShareISDN package is also called "Remote Capi," "Lan Capi," or "Network Capi" to highlight its special characteristic: the entire Capi-Interface of the ISDN-Card is accessible from client computers.
Furthermore, ShareISDN is compatible with the Remote Access Service (RAS), which means that you can make Dial-Up connections to the internet via ShareISDN. Overall, ShareISDN is a useful software that simplifies the sharing of an ISDN-Card in a network.
