You have requested to have Modern Sharing installed to your new server.

(If YES selected, automatically update modem number to 2)
If No Selected, Bring up verbiage for “Remotely Controlling your Server" then ask if they wish
to change their minds. (1 will supply this verbiage in a document called REMCNTRLDOC)
Also, if they only choose to have 1 modem and they want both Modem Sharing and Fax Services,
let them know they need as least 2 modems, 1 for the Modem Share and 1 for the Fax Service.
Then ask, do they wish to add the necessary 2nd modem? YES NO
If No, then display: Unless you choose to have a 2nd modem added, you will need to remove one of
these chosen services. Which service would you like to remove? NOTE: if you choose
NEITHER, we will automatically update your order to add the 2nd necessary modem.
MODEM SHARE FAX SERVER NEITHER
(Note to Developer: If Neither chosen, add the 2nd modem, else update their Network Configuration Form
by removing the chosen service above.)
NOTE: Please make sure you have your phone company instali the necessary phone lines to
allow you to connect each modem to it's own telephone line. The phone lines
will need to be installed where you will be placing your File Server. This is usually in a secure room
that is air conditioned or at least kept cool.
