"Client Must Use These Cover Pages" Rule Does Not Work in Windows 95/98

ID: Q217947

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft BackOffice Small Business Server versions 4.0, 4.0a, 4.5

SYMPTOMS

When you configure your BackOffice Small Business Server (SBS) fax server to use the "Client must use these cover pages" rule, Microsoft Windows NT clients adhere to the rule but Microsoft Windows 95 and Microsoft Windows 98 clients are not restricted and can use any cover page to send faxes.

CAUSE

This behavior occurs because the "Client must use these cover pages" rule requires the use of a remote procedure call (RPC) print provider, which is not used in Windows 95 or Windows 98.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in BackOffice Small Business Server 4.0, 4.0a, and 4.5.
